The empty family

Tóibín, Colm 1955- (Author).

Summary: "This is a captivating collection of stories, from the internationally celebrated author of BROOKLYN and THE MASTER. From the young Pakistani immigrant who seeks some kind of permanence in a strange town, to the Irish woman reluctantly returning to Dublin and discovering a city that refuses to acknowledge her long absence, each of his stories manage to contain whole worlds: stories of fleeing the past and returning home, of family threads lost and ultimately regained."--Publisher.
