From the internationally bestselling "queen of contemporary Irish
popular fiction" (The Sunday Times, London), a heartwarming novel
following three generations of women as they each learn that it's
never too late to live your life to the fullest.
Marie-Claire has just made the shocking discovery that her boyfriend
(and business partner) is cheating on her. Reeling, she leaves her
apartment in Toronto to travel home to Ireland, hoping the comfort of
her family and a few familiar faces will ground her. She arrives just in
time to celebrate her beloved great-aunt Reverend Mother Brigid's
retirement and eightieth birthday. It will be a long-awaited and
touching reunion for three generations of her family, bringing her
mother Keelin and grandmother Imelda--who have never quite gotten
along--together as well.
But then all hell breaks loose.
Bitter, jealous Imelda makes a startling revelation at the party that
forces them all to confront their pasts and face the truths that have
shaped their lives. With four fierce, opinionated women in one family,
will they ever be able to find common ground and move forward?
Perfect for fans of Maeve Binchy and Elin Hilderbrand, The Liberation
of Brigid Dunne is a moving and inspirational family saga that you will
want to share with all the women in your life.
