I quite enjoyed this family drama but I thought it lost some steam towards the end. I think I felt like I was held an arms lenght away from all of the characters instead of fully immersed in them and I wanted to be more wrapped up in their feelings. There were times when I was but more often I felt a bit of a disconnect. Still good. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

The NY-Irish-1970s atmosphere set the stage, but it’s the relationships that really birth all the epic emotions you experience while reading this book that spans 4-5 decades of life. Oh, the relationships in this book—they broke my heart, they mended my heart, again and again. Francis and Lena, Francis and Katie, Kate and Peter, George and Peter, Peter and Anne, Francis and Brian. I just love them all. In this sweeping drama, so much happens: Childhood innocence gives way to harsh life trajectory changes. Unforgivable actions give way to merciful forgiveness. Abandonment happens. Addiction is suffered. Atonement is sought. But in the end, this is a story about family and love and forgiveness; it’s an answer to the question:“What gets more weight? The good or the bad?” (311) ( )
