A powerful novel from the bestselling author of DANCER.
Colum McCann’s first novel goes back to the years before the Spanish Civil War, following the adventures of a peripatetic Irish photographer from the war-strewn shores of Europe to the exotic plains of Mexico. The story is told in the words of the photographer’s only son, a wanderer himself, who uses his father’s unreliable memories and the fading remnants of his art to piece together his family history and explain the mystery surrounding his mother – a Mexican beauty brought back by his father to Ireland.
