Very wistful and tragic, but beautifully written.

Impossible not to fall in love with the characters in this heartfelt story. Trevor's subtle political touches make the novel create a big ideological impact on the reader.

Very recommended if you are interested in understanding the implications The Great Famine had for both Catholic Irish and the Anglo-Irish Ascendants. Trevor studied History, and it shows in the novel.
