Description
[Machine Translation] It is 1985 in a small Irish town. With Christmas approaching and the weather getting colder, Bill Furlong, a coal and lumber merchant, is at his busiest time of the year. One day, while visiting a convent to deliver coal, Furlong comes across a group of girls who are begging to be let out of the convent. Rumors have been circulating that unmarried, pregnant girls are being sent to the convent, but Furlong is forced to make a decision and confront his past. Furlong's novel, which won the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction in the U.K., brilliantly depicts the universality of human nature while shedding light on history. This is a masterpiece based on historical fact by the standard-bearer of contemporary Irish literature, which has been translated and loved in 30 countries around the world.
