The Bridge
by Colm Toibin
€ 12.99 Save €3.25 (RRP €16.24)
ISBN: 9781037418525
A beautiful and emotionally devastating short novel that is both a standalone
masterpiece and a sequel to A Long Winter, from the bestselling author of
Brooklyn and Long Island.
Miquel and his father are living an uneasy life together in his mother's house in the Pyrenees, the house she had been returning to on the day she died. A new bridge, connecting the two valleys, is almost complete, which will end the valley's isolation and create an easier route to smuggle contraband deep into the mountains. Where Miquel's father imagines opportunity, Miquel foresees disaster and an exposure to the outside world for which his father is desperately unprepared.
Colm Toibin's exhilarating short novel contains vast inner and outer worlds within its pages. With meticulous precision and an unerring eye Toibin captures lives caught between the past and the present, and the journey of a young man seeking connection, haunted by loss.
