The Irish writer brings one of the Walsh sisters back to Ireland after heartbreak in New York.
When I was a child perusing the local library, I used to notice entire shelves of brightly coloured books with perkily animated covers — the author’s name etched in a bold, cursive font: Marian Keyes. Her books seemed to take up half the entire adult fiction section.
Her novels broadcast a singular kind of story to a singular sort of audience . Frankly, she deserves more praise for her consistency in carving out astute, older, female characters. In her latest novel, we’re jettisoned back into the lives of the Walsh sisters, with our almost 50-year-old heroine, Anna, having abandoned her high-flying NYC life in beauty PR for a quiet sea change in her motherland of Ireland.
Her job? To allay the fears of a wounded community who believe that the resort will turn their little slice of paradise into the next Hollywood getaway.
