Description
Georgie Vincent is trying her best to adjust to life in an Irish seaside village after her father, a prison warden in 1980s Belfast, uproots the family while he recovers from a breakdown. Just as Georgie's desperately unhappy mother looks like she might leave at any moment, her daughter clings to everything that brings her joy. And she continues to, over the next thirty years. Especially when Georgie has her own family, which also seems in danger of falling apart.
Sensual and lyrical, this is a novel about love, shame and pride, and the peculiar beauty of the everyday.
