A fabulously benign book ... a work of sympathetic magic

- Sebastian Barry, Guardian

I was totally entranced ... a rare book

- Ruth Scurr, The Times

I can't think of anything I've read recently that has chronicled more accurately the thumping chaos of human hearts or felt more questioning and youthful and alive

- Julie Myerson, Financial Times

'A master of both language and storytelling' HILARY MANTEL'Compact and ordinary, it was a town in a hollow that had grown up there for no reason that anyone knew or wondered about . . .'Rathmoye, Ireland, in the middle of the last century, and into town comes a stranger on the day of Eileen Connulty's funeral. Taking unwanted and unasked for photographs, Florian Kilderry upsets its carefully settled status quo. But Ellie, a young convent girl married to a farmer still mourning his first wife, cannot help but be drawn to this trespassing youth. Over the course of a long, warm summer Ellie and Florian form an attachment that sleepy Rathmoye cannot ignore . . .'Unbearably moving' Spectator
