 Long Island

by Colm Toibin

Scribner/ S&S

May 7, 2024


    The story of Eilis Lacey continues in this sequel to Brooklyn. She is just as lovely, deep and unpredictable as she was, but now has children of her own, a husband and his extended family to deal with. Eilis retreats to her childhood home in Ireland when her husband's infidelity is revealed, and the vividly portrayed people in that town that she left behind.

    I hope this is the middle book as we are left wanting to know much more.
