The Green Road
by Anne Enright
The Green Road is a profound and compelling story set among the relational dynamics of a west Clare family, culminating in a turbulent and colourful final Christmas Day in the family home. Irish writers are particularly adept at portraying family dynamics, something at which Ann Enright excels. The ageing matriarch Rosaleen is perceptively and dynamically drawn, down to expressive vernacular and mannerisms. The narrative style is rich and descriptive, the characters of the adult children are drawn with much detail and kindness.
