by Ann Enright
A story of Irish families which Enright does well, and the first of the 2015 Man Booker crop I have read. This tells the stories of four siblings, their lives brought to us in vignettes from the different decades between the 1970's and today. The stories are great and the family have a final get together one christmas when their mother decides to sell the house.
I enjoyed the book up until the end when it sort of fizzled out, but as a master of telling stories about ordinary people in an engaging way, this is a good book. 7/10
