Praise for LOVING HIM
'A lovely, tender, warm book ... very intimate with some wonderfully observed characters and thoughtful insights' LOUISE DEAN
'O'Riordan's characters are convincing and heartbreaking, and she tells their story without sentiment and in pure, lyrical prose' IMAGE
'This latest exhibit in the book of evidence of this masterful wordsmith's talent should come with a health warning: "may cause unbearable pain to anyone who's had their heart broken"...O'Riordan has that delicious yet sometimes unwelcome power to make the reader cry in public. Her ability to allow the story to reveal itself through the eyes of each of the three main characters is a true gift. This is a book about the very essence of life: the sweet passion and the excrutiating pain that comes with loving too much. This novel confirms O'Riordan's as one of our greatest contemporary writers of prose, and also an uncompromising biographer of the heart' IRISH INDEPENDENT
'An excellent family drama from a master of the art' IRISH TATLER
'The focus of the novel is on conscience as much as on whether Matt stays with his wife and family or takes up with Greta, and the author makes an engaging case for the appeal of both options' THE IRISH TIMES
'Tender tale of love and facing down demons' IRELAND ON SUNDAY
'O'Riordan strikes a convincing portrait of the doubts and frustrations that can afflict any long-term partnership' IRISH EXAMINER
Quatrième de couverture
Connie and Matt Wilson, once childhood sweethearts, have worked hard to achieve their dreams - their lovely London home, their three beloved sons and a stable, trusting marriage.
When they go to Rome for a romantic weekend, they enjoy a break all married couples dream of - exploring, eating, drinking and making love. But on their last day, Matt announces to Connie that he is not coming back with her. She returns to London - and their three boys - alone.
LOVING HIM is the story of what happens when the love of your life bumps into the love of his life… the one before you, the one he never really got over. Secure, happy, unquestioning, a random encounter sets off a chain of events that turns a woman's existence from predictable, but blissful, domesticity to dangerous obsession.
Intense and dramatically paced, this tale of a family, a marriage and how you can never quite escape the power of the past is a fantastic successor to Kate O'Riordan's previous novel THE MEMORY STONES
'Beautifully written - subtle, poignant and at times funny THE MEMORY STONES confirms her as a faithful observer of the silent, everyday truths that bind families together' IRISH TIMES
'An evocative study of love, loss and family life' THE TIMES
