Although I liked Brooklyn and Long Island better, still I think this a very good book. A quiet book, about rebuilding a life after a husband died. In a family where not everyone talks enough. I still can’t explain why, but I love Toibin’s very simple and sometimes barren style. And I can’t stop reading, even when little happens, like in this widow’s life.

Listened to the audio book read by Cumming. The book is well written but got tedious at some point because - the serious subject matter notwithstanding - the point had been made early on. Skipped the last 20%.
