Compelling story of prejudice, love, and interwoven relationships with a twist in the end.

This story is set in Ireland, a country full of prejudices, in the period since WW2 up until modern times. Threads of the life of a young woman and eventually into her old age come together into a good read.Read full review

Brilliant

A moving account of a girl’s journey through life beset by conflict created by other people’s problems against a religious and political backdrop. Highly sensitive and powerfully descriptive. A twisting turning narrative with a shocking ending. Couldn’t put the book down! Read full review

Very moving

A very moving story with unusual ending. The main character, Roseanne, had a hard time fit.
