The Truth Must Dazzle Gradually by Helen Cullen
5.0
Helen Cullen is such a thoughtful and charming writer. I loved her first novel and this one didn't disappoint.
Set over a thirty year period, following the family of an Irish man and American woman and their family, it is very different to The Lost Letters of William Woolf, which shows the authors emerging versatility. I will definately read more of what Helen Cullen produces in the future.
Laying bare the issues of relationships, mental health and having to grow up, the writing was sensitive and understanding. All of the characters were likeable and relatable. The descriptions of Dublin, Galway and an island off the west coast of Ireland made we want to return to Ireland and explore some more.
I recommend this book and thank the author, the publisher and #NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review #TheTruthMustDazzleGradually
