One Star

It just plain isn't good writing. Avoid this one.

Beautiful book - layers of landscape, history and human existence

Both tender and tough this novel - threaded with loss and immigration, hunger and hope - offers characters in contemporary Ireland exploring their separate, difficult personal paths and the promise of their future. Lush green hills, Indian spices, and bourbon pie filled my senses while I grew to care about the people budding together in this exquisitely written book.
