Deborah, a mother of two young boys with autism, is heartbroken, perplexed and exhausted. Through the pages of her diary, we feel her gut wrenching agony as she helplessly watches her family disintegrate under the ruthless oppression of autism, as it cruelly invades every facet of her children's lives, their minds, bodies, senses and emotions.Refusing to make peace with the diagnosis, and in a place of unutterable despair, Deborah has an encounter with God, which ignites a fire of hope in her heart.Armed with the revelation that God has already provided healing for her sons, Deborah shares their journey, culminating in the inexpressible joy of complete healing and restoration.
The quietest life can resonate the longest. A beautiful, bittersweet masterpiece about a remarkable journey of the heart SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL IMPAC DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2015 LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD 2014 Someone begins on the stoop of a Brooklyn apartment building where Marie is waiting for her father to come home from work. It is the 1920s and in her Irish-American enclave the stories of her neighbours unfold before her short-sighted eyes. As the years pass Marie's own history plays out against the backdrop of a changing world.

Fragments of a curious childhood, of adolescent sexual awakenings, of motherhood and, finally, old age are pieced together in this resonant tale of an unremarkable, unforgettable woman. ______________________ 'A beautiful book' Sunday Telegraph 'Masterful' Irish Times 'Exquisite' New York Times
