Of Land and Greed
by Denis Cronin
€ 16.25
ISBN: 9781915502957
Of Land and Greed is a gripping historical fiction set in the rugged hills of West Cork, Ireland, at the dawn of the 20th century. As Ireland shifts from British rule to independence, the Crowley family experiences triumph and tragedy in their quest for power and legacy.
Seán Óg Crowley, the first in his family to own the land they’ve farmed as tenants for generations, becomes consumed by the need for a son to inherit the farm. When an illicit affair produces twin boys, a bitter rivalry between the brothers begins to fester, threatening to tear the family apart.
As Ireland battles for independence, Seán Óg wages a personal war at home—one fueled by obsession, betrayal, and unrelenting ambition. Decades later, the bitter feud culminates in a final, explosive confrontation amidst the most severe storm in living memory. But even as the Crowley family legacy seems destined to fracture, one last secret emerges, setting the stage for a final twist that will haunt future generations.
With its rich historical backdrop, Of Land and Greed is a powerful tale of family, ambition, and the corrosive effects of greed, as one family’s struggle mirrors the birth of a nation.
