A lush and lyrical novel set in early twentieth-century Dublin. The story follows Deirdre O'Breen, who leaves her primitive home on the Great Blasket Island at fourteen, carrying a family secret. On the mainland, she marries Manus, the architect son of a wealthy family. Their marriage is filled with hope but also complicated by legacies and secrets. When Deirdre's secret resurfaces, she must confront questions about the influence of her parents' sins and frailties on her own life and children.
