Description

The Fox's Walk by Annabel Davis-Goff is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of family relationships and societal expectations. Set against the backdrop of World War I, the story follows Alice, a young girl growing up in an Anglo-Irish household, as she navigates the intricate web of conversations and secrets that surround her. As Alice eavesdrops on the whispers of her family and their guests, she begins to piece together a puzzle of her own society. The lives of those around her - from the major domo O'Neil to the enigmatic Sonia - are intertwined with the Irish Nationalist Cause, and the story becomes a nuanced exploration of loyalty, morality, and the choices we make in life. Ultimately, Alice's journey is one of self-discovery and growth, as she learns to forge her own path and choose a future that feels right for her.
