Description
***LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2018***
***SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA NOVEL AWARD 2018***
'Beautiful and affecting' David Nicholls
'An engrossing, unpredictable, beautifully crafted novel' RODDY DOYLE
Farouk’s country has been torn apart by war.
Lampy’s heart has been laid waste by Chloe.
John’s past torments him as he nears his end.
The refugee. The dreamer. The penitent. From war-torn Syria to small-town Ireland, three men, scarred by all they have loved and lost, are searching for some version of home. Each is drawn towards a powerful reckoning, one that will bring them together in the most unexpected of ways.
Advance Praise
'Brutal and beautiful, carefully crafted portraits, deep and real,
tied together, fashioned by a true artist. I absolutely loved it.' - KIT
DE WAAL
'Beautifully written, compassionate and almost
unbearably moving. I loved it. I would struggle to think of any other
Irish author working today who writes with as much compassion as Donal
Ryan.' - LOUISE O'NEILL
'It’s a beautiful, luminous kind of piece - full
of mystery, compassion, woven with such skill; heartbreaking and
restorative. I will carry these splintered men around with me for a long
time, along with the women who have loved them.' - RACHEL JOYCE
