Description

A captivating debut novel of breathtaking imagination, Folk is a magical and haunting tale of a remote island community. The air is rich with the scent of gorse and the salty bite of the sea, and the villagers' lives are inseparable from nature and its enchantments. As the tales of this island community interweave over the course of a generation, their desires, resentments, gossip and losses create a staggeringly original world. Crackling with echoes of ancient folklore, Folk is a dark, beautiful and intoxicating read. The author's unique voice brings to life a world that is both earthy and enchanting, with a cast of characters whose stories are woven together to create a rich tapestry of human experience.
