FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ASK AGAIN, YES'A novel of great compassion and understanding . . . rich with story' JOHN BOYNE on Ask Again, Yes
'The characters are so well drawn and out of the ordinary that I was quickly drawn into their story and didn't want it to end' Netgalley Reader Review, *****
'A fearless writer' LISA TADDEO
'A gorgeous nostalgic family drama with real characters. Loved it' Netgalley Reader Review, *****
Rural Ireland, the 1960s, and Greta Cahill must abandon her deserted village to follow her fearless sister Johanna onto a ship bound for America.
It's here in New York that she steps out of her sister's shadow and in to a life of her own, rich with love, work and family.
As the years pass Greta longs to revisit the past - to see her mother, to show her what she has made of herself - but she must protect a family secret, decades old.
So when her children conspire to unite the worlds she's kept so carefully apart, Greta fears she could lose it all...
A compassionate story of self-discovery and identity, The Walking People has remarkable range and power.
