Flight is the story of four travellers as their journeys intersect
one winter in Dublin. Sandrine, a Zimbabwean woman who has left her
husband and son behind in the hope of making a better life for them
in Ireland, is alone and secretly pregnant. She finds herself
working as a carer for Tom and Clare, a couple whose travels are
ending as their minds being to fail. Meanwhile Elizabeth, their
world-weary daughter, carries the weight of her own body's secret.
Set in Ireland in 2004 as a referendum on citizenship approaches,
Flight is a magically observed story of family and belonging,
following the gestation of a friendship during a year of crisis.
Flight is among a new breed of Irish novel, one that recognises the
global nature of Irish experience in the late 20th century, and one
that considers Ireland in the aftermath of the failed Celtic Tiger.
