A beautiful and elegiac novel of the First World War. Stephen Ryan, a gifted young maths scholar is sent to fight in Turkey, unaware of the growing unrest back home in Ireland. His romantic notions of war are soon shattered, and on his return to a Dublin poised for rebellion in 1916, he is forced to consider where his loyalties lie. This novel is based on the short story which won Monaghan the Hennessy New Irish Writing Award and Prize for Emerging Fiction.
