'Extraordinary ... The beating heart of this novel is the exquisite
empathy it demonstrates ... There is a gentle magnificence at work
in its pages' Irish Times 'Tender, poignant and heartfelt ... A
generous novel that celebrates communication, connection and
courage' Daily Mail Marie owes Michka more than she can say - but
Michka is getting older, and can't look after herself any more. So
Marie has moved her to a home where she'll be safe. But Michka
doesn't feel any safer; she is haunted by strange figures who
threaten to unearth her most secret, buried guilt, guilt that she's
carried since she was a little girl. And she is losing her words -
grasping more desperately day by day for what once came easily to
her. Jerome is a speech therapist, dispatched to help the home's
ageing population snatch and hold tight onto the speech still
afforded to them. But Michka is no ordinary client. Michka has been
carrying an old debt she does not know how to repay - and as her
words slide out of her grasp, time is running out. Delicately
wrought and darkly gripping, Gratitude is about love, loss and
redemption; about what we owe one another, and the redemptive power
of showing thanks.
