The Shortest Day by Colm Tóibín

5.0

The secrets of the shortest day

We wonder what the spirit world is like as the spirits wander in their afterlife.
Colm Tóibín weaves his literary skill in this very short book moving between the world of the living and the world of long dead spirits, keen to ensure their secrets remain in their world, not the living world.
An interesting book that piques your interest into why and how centuries or millennia old burial sites were built and for whom. And what those spirits are thinking now.
