THE NEW WORK FROM THE WINNER OF THE IMPAC LITERARY AWARD

Mothers and Sons is a sensitive and beautifully written meditation on the dramas surrounding this most elemental of relationships.

Each of the nine stories focuses on a moment in which an unspoken balance shifts; in which a mother or son do battle, or experience a sudden crisis, thus leaving their conception of who they are subtly or seriously altered.

A son buries his mother and goes out to a drug-fuelled rave on a remote beach near Dublin. In the course of this one night his grief and desire for raw feeling combine with exquisite intensity. And in A Long Winter, Colm Toibin's finest piece of fiction to date, a son goes searching for his mother in the snow-covered Pyrenees.
