The Bee Sting - Paul Murray
The Bee Sting - Paul Murray
A family quietly unravelling in the Irish countryside…each of them certain they’re holding it together, They orbit each other in misunderstanding, shame and love….the past pressing in on all sides.
Shortlisted for the booker in 2023, this is a big, ambitious novel. Humour is carefully balanced with dread…you find yourself laughing one page and bracing the next.
At its heart, it’s about the stories families tell themselves to survive and the cost of keeping certain truths buried.
A modern Irish epic. Tender, funny and sad all at the same time.
