É absolutamente incrível o que Claire Keegan faz. Numa narrativa curta que quase parece um conto, consegue “encaixar” tantos temas e de forma tão simples e com a escrita que tão bem a caracteriza, que quase parece fácil. De resto, sem cair na escrita de sinopses, não me ocorre nada mais para dizer que possa caracterizar a excelência da autora.
A ler, definitivamente.

It’s a novella of 89 pages about love, kindness and gratitude. This book is so beautifully written that it felt so good while reading and I was kinda emerged in the story the whole time that I couldn’t put it down. The vivid description of rural Ireland adds beauty to this novella.

And… the ending… affection is what brings people closer. Parental love is beautifully captured here.
