Sobre este título
'Audacious and propulsive, a story surges with emotion - this is a dazzling novel' - Colin Walsh, author of Kala
Exploring the fine line between dishonesty and reinvention, Saoirse is an evocative and compelling story of a woman perpetually in flight. A book for fans of Trespasses by Louise Kennedy and Barbara's Kingsolver's Demon Copperhead.
In the wilds of Donegal, Ireland, 1999, Saoirse is an artist living an outwardly idyllic life. Her tender husband Daithí and two beloved daughters are regular subjects for her work, and in them she has found the safe home that she has always longed for. She tends not to talk about her past, and those that love her have learned to accept that the full story is too painful for her to disclose.
When her Dublin exhibition unexpectedly wins a prestigious award that invites a swarm of publicity, Saoirse is left panic stricken. The unanticipated recognition threatens to expose a decade's worth of buried memories and past crimes. Because what her family and friends don't know is that Saoirse has been on the run since she was seventeen, she has stolen an identity to survive, and whilst Ireland might now be her home, it wasn't her first - and now her past life is poised to reclaim her.
The novel weaves between flashbacks to a complicated childhood in Michigan, and Saoirse's journey to and in Ireland to forge safety for herself.©2026 Charleen Hurtubise (P)2026 Bonnier Books UK
Resumo da Crítica
'A beautifully wrought, deeply human story of the power of creativity in the face of survival. By turns funny and moving, with an unforgettable cast of characters (with a special mention to Daithí, the Mr Darcy of Donegal) Saoirse brims with humanity and hope' (Louise Nealon)
'A novel as rich with narrative layers as the visual art of its protagonist, yet limned with trauma, with the consequences of secrecy and silence, and with the hope that can come from true connection and community, Saoirse is an audacious act of storytelling' (Belinda McKeon)
'Gripping and emotionally complex, Saoirse is a moving portrait of love, heartbreak and the sacrifices one woman makes for the family and life she deserves...luminous!' (Michelle Gallen)
'Hurtubise balances grit and tenderness on a high wire of sustained tension' (Lauren McKenzie)
