The story follows Mico, born to be a fisherman, from childhood to manhood. Mico is a gentle giant, slow of mind, strong, principled. He has a red birthmark on his face that he’s self-conscious about. Mico’s father and grandfather are fishermen and he’s followed in their footsteps. Mico’s mother favors his brother, Tommy, but she’s the only person that does.
The story follows the rhythms of coastal Ireland and the ocean that dominates existence there. The characters, humanity and drama make for a satisfying and timeless novel. ( )
