Description
From the heart of the fairest city – the romantic saga of a proud and tragic Irish family
Born to riches, then cast into poverty in a world on the brink of war, Kathleen must rebuild her shattered life in the Ireland of the twenties – turbulent then as now.
From two husbands and a faithless lover, she will raise a brood of children amidst the dingy squalor of the Dublin tenements. Only her shining faith will carry Kathleen through the years of heartbreak and suffering: as a woman, as a mother – and as an inspiration to her eldest son who will become the greatest writer of his time.
‘A lively novel, richly embellished with the political, social and literary events of Dublin’s past’ Booklist
