Produktinformationen zu „Bog Child “
The extraordinary story of one long summer in the life of an 18-year-old boy caught up in the chaos and conflict of Ireland in the 1980s. Digging for peat in the mountain with his Uncle Tally, Fergus finds the body of a child. As Fergus tries to make sense of the mad world around him - his brother on hunger-strike in prison, his growing feelings for Cora, his parents arguing over the Troubles, and him in it up to the neck, a little voice comes to him in his dreams, and the mystery of the bog child unfurls.
