Shortlisted for the Booker Prize
Helenâs beloved brother Declan is dying. Now, she must join her mother and grandmother in a crumbling old house by the sea, three generations calling an uneasy truce after years of strife, to be by his side. Together with Declanâs friends, who know more about him than any family, they must all deal with the past and come to terms with each other.
'It is in his emotional choreography that TĂłibĂn shows himself to be an exceptional writer' The Sunday Telegraph
'The most astonishing piece of writing, lyrical in its emotion and spare in its construction . . . TĂłibĂn has crafted an unmissable read'
