SHORTLISTED FOR THE JAMES TAIT BLACK PRIZE LONGLISTED FOR THE
GUARDIAN FIRST BOOK AWARD NOMINATED FOR THE FOLIO PRIZE NAMED A
NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES A stunning,
heartbreaking debut - 'We Are Not Ourselves' is both the intimate
story of a family and an epic of the American Century. Eileen Leary
wants more. Raised in a downtrodden area of new York by
hard-drinking, Irish immigrant parents, she dreams of another life:
a better job, a bigger house, more respectable friends, a happy
family. When she meets Ed Leary, a brilliant young scientist, she
thinks she's found the perfect partner to pursue and share her
American Dream with. An indefatigable love enters Eileen's life -
but so too does a pervasive darkness and a loss that will last a
lifetime.
