Specifikacia The Home Scar


From the Women's Prize longlisted author of Nothing But Blue Sky'The home scar - that's what they call the mark limpets make on the rock when they return.''Wait, they leave the rock?' 'Of course. How else would they survive? On opposite sides of the world, half-siblings Cassie and Christo have built their lives around work, intent on ignoring their painful past.When a dramatic storm in Galway hits the headlines, they're drawn back there to revisit a glorious childhood summer, the last before their mother died. But their journey uncovers memories of a far less happy summer - one that had tragic consequences.Confronted with the havoc their mother left in her wake, Cassie and Christo are forced to face their past and - ready or not - to deal with the messy tangle of parental love and neglect that shaped them.The Home Scar is a luminous and precise story about the inheritance of loss and the possibility of finally making peace with it.Praise for Nothing But Blue Sky'A piece of perfection . . . the best book I've read all year' Irish Examiner'Touching and enthralling' Sunday Times'What a beautiful novel . . . Elegant, understated, subtly powerful and rings so perfectly true' Donal Ryan
