About This Item
London: One World, 2023. 1st. h/b. Near fine, 1st edition, signed to title; slight forward lean.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). The explosive literary sensation: a mother faces a terrible choice as Ireland slides into totalitarianism. On a dark, wet evening in Dublin, scientist and mother-of-four Eilish Stack answers her front door to find the GNSB on her step. Two officers from IrelandÕs newly formed secret police are here to interrogate her husband, a trade unionist. Ireland is falling apart. The country is in the grip of a government turning towards tyranny and when her husband disappears, Eilish finds herself caught within the nightmare logic of a society that is quickly unravelling. How far will she go to save her family? And what Ð or who Ð is she willing to leave behind? Exhilarating, terrifying and propulsive, Prophet Song is a work of breathtaking originality, offering a devastating vision of a country at war and a deeply human portrait of a motherÕs fight to hold her family together. 'A compassionate, propulsive and timely novel that forces the reader to imagine _ what if this was me?' FT
