AN POST IRISH BOOK AWARD NOVEL OF THE YEAR Longlisted for the
Dublin Literary Awards "Mr. Ryan writes conspicuously beautiful
prose... The fleeting happiness and abiding melancholy of the
asymmetry, heightened by the intimately rendered surroundings,
brings out Mr. Ryan's most sensuous and emotive writing." -The Wall
Street Journal From the Booker nominated author of The Queen of
Dirt Island, Donal Ryan's new novel follows the Gladney family
across three generations seeking the true meaning of what it is to
find home and love. In 1973, twenty-year-old Moll Gladney takes a
morning bus from her rural home in Ireland and disappears.
Bewildered and distraught, Paddy and Kit must confront an
unbearable prospect: that they will never see their daughter again.
Five years later, Moll returns from London. What - and who - she
brings with her will change the course of her family's life
forever. Beautiful and devastating, this exploration of loss,
alienation and the redemptive power of love reaffirms Donal Ryan as
one of the most talented and empathetic writers at work today.
