Carmel had been alone all her life. The baby knew this. They looked
at each other, and all of time was there. The baby knew how vast
her mother's loneliness had been. A contemporary novel of
daughterhood and motherhood, from the Booker Prize-winning Irish
author 'The Wren, The Wren is a magnificent novel' SALLY ROONEY,
author of NORMAL PEOPLE 'Might just be her best yet' LOUISE
KENNEDY, author of TRESPASSES 'One of our greatest living
novelists' THE TIMES 'The unofficial rock star of literary fiction'
IRISH TIMES Nell - funny, brave and so much loved - is a young
woman with adventure on her mind. As she sets out into the world,
she finds her family history hard to escape. For her mother,
Carmel, Nell's leaving home opens a space in her heart, where the
turmoil of a lifetime begins to churn. And across the generations
falls the long shadow of Carmel's famous father, an Irish poet of
beautiful words and brutal actions. This is a meditation on love:
spiritual, romantic, darkly sexual or genetic. A multigenerational
novel that traces the inheritance not just of trauma but also of
wonder, it is a testament to the glorious resilience of women in
the face of promises false and true. Above all, it is an
exploration of the love between mother and daughter - sometimes
fierce, often painful, but always transcendent.
