Product Description
This striking debut novel opens as Jack Sammon waits in jail, accused of a horrific crime that has scarred the community. As he sits, he wrestles with his memories and scribbles the details of his life in a spiral notebook. Jack grew up on a small farm in a close-knit West of Ireland community; the middle of three children. He lost his father at an early age, a trauma made worse by his mother's disastrous choice of a second partner. As a retreat from his home, he was drawn to the local eccentric Irene, who revealed to him secrets about his family that shook him to his core. Paul Soye is the author of two full-length plays, Cherished and The Birdcage, which won the Esso New Irish Play Award at the National Drama Festival in Athlone in 1996.
