Produktbeschreibung

Laura and Donal, Breffni and Cian, Andrew and Ruth: three contented middle-class couples, gathering at each other's houses for dinner parties, bound together by shared memories of childhood adventures. But, beneath the cosy contentment of their lives lies tensions that threaten to erupt at any moment. Andrew, Laura's handsome brother, has just returned home from Crete with his bride in tow, the surprisingly timid Ruth, who is finding it hard to fit in with Andrew's overbearing mother, Cecily. And, to her increasing concern, Andrew doesn't seem to have his mind entirely on her... Laura is desperate to have a family, and can't understand why Donal doesn't seem to share her only wish. And the beautiful, glamorous Breffni, with her lovely husband, Cian, and the golden child, Polly, well, she has the greatest surprise in store...

Autorenporträt

In 1977 Roisin Meaney finished a sentence and won a car. The sentence was 'I would like to win a Ford Fiesta because my father won't let me drive his'. In the 24 years that followed she wrote a lot more sentences and won a lot more prizes. In 2001, she finally decided to keep writing sentences until she filled a book. Since then she's written a number of bestselling novels and two children's books. Her work has been translated into many European languages including German, Spanish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Dutch and Italian and has been published in the US. Born in Kerry, Roisin has also lived in Dublin, Tipperary, London, Zimbabwe and San Francisco. Her present home, and her main place of residence since the age of 8, is Limerick.
