I might give this 2.5 stars. I wanted to like this, but spent most of the time annoyed at Eilis for being unable to put her foot down or express her opinion about anything. Not to mention her being unfaithful to Tony by cavorting with Jim. I did finish it, which is more than I can say for some books.

As with everything Toibin writes, it is sublime.
