Such a pleasure to read such poetic prose. McBride flows us through the narrative with grace and ease without shorting us on good writing.

I've been teaching creative writing for 37 years and this is an author whose prose is like poetry. Her plot is braided between myth, history and present and her characters breathe. I'd suggest you read all three of Regina McBride's books. And then you'll want to reread them for their music.

Expate Irish Fiona leaves her mother Jane who has slept with her boyfriend. Ends up in the American Southwest (huh?!) and meets Carlos Aragon- who has a passion for Spanish ships wrecked off the coast of Ireland. Get the connection? It's a long time making it. Well, just an OK read. 4- at best.
