johnboyce 's review for:
Old God's Time
by Sebastian Barry
Blimey. Where to start. What a fabulous book. Sneaked in as my best book of this year. The poetical, internal and deeply unreliable voice of a retired Dublin detective takes you on a tragic and heroic tale of a family destroyed by early childhood trauma inflicted by those who should never have been allowed and even facilitated to perpetrate it. The story both takes your breath away and will have tears streaming down your cheeks. A wonderfully sad and poignant book.
