One chilly April morning a stranger shows up at a commune in the Catskill Mountains, upstate New York. Conor is greeted by Liv, sixty-seven years old, mother, cancer survivor and founder of the once pilgrimage-worthy Birdeye Colony, now well past its heyday.

As truths masked by free spirit push their way into the open, Liv must reassess what she asks of those she loves most.Birdeye is a novel about tolerance, the choices we make in good faith, and, ultimately, what they cost.Praise for Birdeye‘With luminous prose, infinite humanity and exceptional storytelling, Heneghan shows us family – whether chosen or given – in all its fascinating complexity.

Recensioner i media

What I loved about this book was the element of found family, I’ve always enjoyed books which deal with this and Birdeye was a perfect example. Each of the characters were fully fleshed out and believable and I had a real affection and connection with Liv. Judith Heneghan writes with such precision and I was fully sucked into the narrative and the psychological aspects of a world that was once steady and solid becoming precarious and rocky. This was one of my standout reads of the year so far and I’d urge you all to read it.
