Inhalt
Tóibín returns to his native Irish shores for the bulk of these 9 pristine stories, all - save one - contemporary tales of lives haunted by loss, whether it's the legacy of a sexually abusive priest in an already complicated love triangle in »The Pearl Fishers«, the long-absent gay son who returns to Dublin from New York to attend to his mother's last moments in »One Minus One«, or the aching void that greets an academic's return to a family home on the Irish coast in »The Empty Family«. Affairs, airports, and deathbeds populate a mature prose that's as tender with descriptions of sexual, often gay, love as it is with the heart's more inexpressible reaches, never more so than in the complex »The Street«, where two Pakistanis find love in the repressive backdrop of blue-collar Barcelona.
