  • Subtle, powerful, and full of hope. 5/5

    This gentle understated novel is a touching narrative about the decision to take action in the face of cruelty. The writing gives a beautiful sense of quiet simplicity. Although the story centres around a down part of Ireland’s history, it left me with a sense of hope, and a reminder that lundness is never wasted.
