A review by ashmagoffin
Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan

5.0

Small Things Like These packs an absolute punch for a novella. This book was compelling as it was thought provoking. This book is set in the 1980s in Ireland, it feels like it could be taking place a hundred years before (a deliberate choice). The hypocrisy of the village, juxtaposition of the characters and engagement of this book is a masterclass. I need to pick up more Claire Keegan, what a marvel.
