Description
The Visitor by Maeve Brennan Following the death of her mother, Anastasia King returns to Dublin after a long absence. She finds her family home, but also a bitter and unforgiving grandmother who has been waiting for her return. As Anastasia settles into her old home, she faces a series of small humiliations at the hands of her grandmother, who seems determined to make her feel unwelcome. This novella is a powerful and haunting account of the personal and political factors that shape a young woman's life. Written in a sparse and evocative style, it is a masterful exploration of the complexities of family relationships and the struggle for freedom. Presented here with a new introduction, The Visitor cements Maeve Brennan's reputation as a major writer of her generation.
