Synopsis
Anne Enright is a 2007 Booker Prize-winning Irish author. She has written essays, short-stories, non-fiction and novels. This story, The Gathering, is the narrative voice of Veronica, who is one of twelve grown-up children in the Hegarty family; it discusses the apparent suicide of her younger brother Liam, and the effect it has on her and the family. The novel is a strong and poignant portrayal of loss and alienation. Enright captures the peculiar relationship of these close siblings perfectly.
