Description
A young girl is taken from her home and brought to live with relatives on a farm, where she finds a new sense of belonging and affection. As the summer unfolds, she begins to blossom in the care of her new family, but there is a sense of uncertainty about her future. The warmth and tranquility of the household are tempered by an unspoken reality, and the summer must eventually come to an end. This poignant and evocative novel explores the complexities of family life and the power of human connection. With its subtle and nuanced portrayal of rural life, Claire Keegan's writing is both deeply moving and quietly profound. Set against the backdrop of a hot summer in rural Ireland, this book is a powerful exploration of the human experience.
