Description

A time, a place, and the details of everyday life – every sentence paints a picture of a world both familiar and yearning

It is 1985, in an Irish town. During the weeks leading up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal and timber merchant, looks into and faces up to his busiest season. As he does the rounds, he feels the past rising up to meet him – and encounters the complicit silences of a people controlled by the Church.
