Description

AN AWARD-WINNING AND REMARKABLE IRISH NOVELIST

'This family tale mirrors the history of a country that can never evade its own past' The TIMES

'Rush out for the works of Kate O'Brien. You are in for a treat' VAL HENNESSY

'A fuller appreciation of modern literature and a greater understanding of twentieth century Ireland' IRISH TIMES

It is 1939, the last summer before the outbreak of war. French actress Angele Maury abandons a group of friends travelling through Ireland and takes herself to picturesque Drumaninch, birthplace of her dead father. She has come to make sense of her past. Self-conscious with her pale, exotic beauty, Angele braves the idiosyncratic world of the Kernahans: her enigmatic aunt Hannah, her ridiculous but loveable uncle Corney and her three cousins - Martin, charming, intense; Tom, devoted to his mother, and their bright sister Jo, who combines religious faith with a penchant for gambling.

But is there some mystery surrounding the past? History threatens to repeat itself as Angele finds herself seduced by the beauty of Ireland, and by the love of two men . . . first published in 1943, The Last of the Summer is a perfectly structured psychological love story.
