Set in the 1960s, narrator Eve lives in a dysfunctional family on a rundown Irish chicken farm. Mother is old before her time, worn down by marriage to a taciturn failure of a man and constant care of a large and severely mentally impaired son. Father hangs around the outhouse, ogling his daughter bathing. But with flighty cousin Eileen living with them, Eve's thoughts fixate on music, dances and love...
Following Eve's slightly implausible adventures after she leaves her home for the city...and later London, this is an entertaining enough novel which evokes the somewhat impoverished era. The author doesn't really dwell sufficiently on Eve's feelings; stuff happens and she acts but we never fully grasp what she's thinking. ( )
