"It's the spring of 1976, and twenty years have passed since Eilis married Tony Fiorello and left Brooklyn to move to Long Island with her extended in-laws. Her children, Rosella and Larry, were born there, and for years they have lived in apparent harmony, until a man with an Irish accent appears at her door with unexpected news that shakes the fragile marital peace, made up of deafening silences, to its core. For the first time in a long time, Eilis feels far from her native Ireland and decides to return to Enniscorthy, to a world she thought she had left behind and to a way of living, and loving, that she thought she had completely lost. Did she make a mistake in choosing Tony? Is it too late to change course? After captivating more than a million readers with Brooklyn, winner of the Costa Book Award, the master of feelings Colm Tóibín returns with an exquisite sequel with a high emotional impact." -- Back cover.
