Small Things Like These is award-winning author Claire Keegan's landmark new novel, a tale of one man's courage and a remarkable portrait of love and family.
It is 1985 in a small Irish town. During the weeks leading up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal merchant and family man, faces into his busiest season. Early one morning, while delivering an order to the local convent, Bill makes a discovery which forces him to confront both his past and the complicit silences of a town controlled by the church.
Already an international bestseller, Small Things Like These is a deeply affecting story of hope, quiet heroism, and empathy from one of our most critically lauded and iconic writers.
Lindísimo, bellamenta escrito... aunque no entiendo bien el nivel de hype (he escuchado a muchísima gente decir que es su libro favorito). ¿Quizá es que compacta mucho (no en términos de acción pero sí de poder narrativo) en poquitas páginas?
