  1. 4/5 Marie-Anne

    Jag rekommenderar dock den svenska översättningen, eftersom språket var knepigare än vad jag erfarit hos andra irländska författare (t ex Edna O'Brien som läses obehindrat). Men man låter sig snabbt gripas av denna ovanliga (?) familjehistoria och de olika medlemmarnas karaktärer och öden. En lämplig bok för en läsecirkel, som i mitt fall!
