Sinopsis

Invierno de 1985 en un pequeño pueblo irlandés. Bill Furlong es un hombre amable y un trabajador infatigable; vende carbón y madera. Su única preocupación es que a su esposa y a sus cinco hijas no les falte nada. Lleva una vida tranquila y rutinaria; hasta que un día; mientras entrega un pedido en el convento del pueblo; se involucra en una situación que le devuelve otra imagen de su pasado; dejándolo en medio de una encrucijada definitiva: por un lado; seguir su instinto de autopreservación y mirar hacia abajo; por el otro; actuar con coraje y hacer lo correcto; sin importar las consecuencias. Claire Keegan; una de las voces más potentes de la literatura irlandesa contemporánea; se detiene con perspicacia en esas pequeñas cosas que hacen la diferencia y construye una novela de una delicadeza conmovedora.

She may be the best writer of stories since the early-1950s prime of John Cheever, Eudora Welty, and Flannery O’Connor, and even in such august company, her work is sui generis. Gallant’s short fiction refines the art of the story even as it expands the boundaries of what a story can be....
