Description
In 1961, MJ Galvin brought his brother Tom to London to join the family business. As an outsider in the city, Tom's sensitive nature and desire for spiritual guidance led him down a path that would change his life forever. Tom's journey took him from the excitement of dancehall nights to the quiet solitude of a country parish, where he grappled with the tensions between tradition and modernity. A powerful family saga unfolds as Tom navigates the complexities of faith, power, and identity in a rapidly changing world. This poignant novel evokes the spirit of a new Ireland, where the old certainties are giving way to consumerism and uncertainty.
