4.0 out of 5 stars
a haunting novel of love and loss,
By Tom Hamilton (South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fool's Sanctuary (Mass Market Paperback)
Jennifer Johnston reminds us of the waste and regret that comes from love in inopportune times, in places where greater forces of emotion and hate are at play. Ireland after 1916 was a place of reawakened pride and passion. Those who existed in the previous order saw little place for themselves in the country about to be born. Johnston captures that sense of opportunity lost, for Miranda and, indeed, for the whole country. Living in South Africa today, it seems so familiar. A beautifully written book.
