- Used Book in Good Condition
Colm TÃ³ibÃnâ€™s second â€œlovely, understatedâ€ novel that â€œproceeds with stately graceâ€ (The Washington Post Book World) about an uncompromising judge whose principles, when brought home to his own family, are tragic.

Eamon Redmond is a judge in Irelandâ€™s high court, a completely legal creature who is just beginning to discover how painfully unconnected he is from other human beings. With effortless fluency, Colm TÃ³ibÃn reconstructs the history of Eamonâ€™s relationshipsâ€”with his father, his first â€œgirl,â€ his wife, and the children who barely know himâ€”and he writes about Eamonâ€™s affection for the Irish coast with such painterly skill that the land itself becomes a character. The result is a novel of stunning power, â€œseductive and absorbingâ€ (USA Today).
