Description
A nightmare marriage; a cold, rural community; a tragedy in the past for which she is blamed - these are the fetters of Grace Quinn's life. But then, with an act of violence and despair, she attempts her escape.
The world into which she flees is that of her son, Martin - the confident urban world of a Dublin on the up. But Dublin, and the whole country, is about to be shaken out of its complacent glide into modernity, and Martin - product of the old Ireland, resident of the new - is about to learn that one cannot be separated from the other.
