A stunning, evocative novel set in Ireland and Canada, Away
traces a family's complex and layered past. The narrative unfolds
with shimmering clarity, and takes us from the harsh northern Irish
coast in the 1840s to the quarantine stations at Grosse Isle and
the barely hospitable land of the Canadian Shield; from the
flourishing town of Port Hope to the flooded streets of Montreal;
from Ottawa at the time of Confederation to a large-windowed house
at the edge of a Great Lake during the present day. Graceful and
moving, Away unites the personal and the political as it explores
the most private, often darkest corners of our emotions where the
things that root us to ourselves endure. Powerful, intricate,
lyrical, Away is an unforgettable novel.
