Taylor Sam - Connemara A Novel - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Helene is approaching 40. Born in a small town in the east of France she worked hard to leave it behind and achieve a life worthy of the glossy magazines she pored over as a teen. But now that she seemingly has it all - a husband and two daughters a successful career and a custom - designed house near Nancy - she feels unfulfilled as though the years have passed her by. Christophe just turned 40 and has never left his little corner of France where he grew up with Helene. No longer as handsome as he used to be he's led an unassuming life preferring to party with friends than to apply himself. These days he's selling dog food dreaming of playing hockey again like he did when he was 16, and living with his father and son - a quiet indecisive existence which could be seen as failure. And yet he fully believes that anything is still possible. Through the story of how their two disparate lives intersect once more Connemara beautifully evokes the complex pain and joy of returning to your roots and trying to make a relationship last in a rapidly changing increasingly divided country.
