Viele Herausforderungen hat sie gemeistert, seit sie als junge Frau vor der IRA nach Amerika fliehen musste. Nun verlässt sie der Lebensmut – doch bevor sie geht, hält sie in einem großen Haushaltsbuch ihre Erinnerungen fest: Sie weiß, wie es sich anfüh..more

Seems to me the author did not focus/consider the racial difference as an influence. Common human triumph and tragedy cross all racial/political/historical boundaries. The elderly woman's POV/summary at novel's end emphasizes this. Though she intentionally breaks a sacrament, she expects to be forgiven. What a beautiful book!(less)

Though this is only my second Sebastian Barry novel I feel I can recognize his voice now. First one I read of him it was The secret scripture and, as I found out later, it was part of a cycle McNulty Family. This one in turn with other titles creates Dunne Family.
Both novels being different are alike or perhaps it was the other way round. Maybe I’ll find accurate words to review The secret scripture yet but now I focus on On Canaan’s Side. Lilly Dunne, well, let’s be exact, Lilly Dunne Kinder..more

If you've read a few Barry novels this feels formulaic and repetitive. A woman at the end of her long life narrates her story, echoing The Secret Scripture and she has to flee Ireland because of finding herself on an IRA death list, echoing The Whereabouts of Eneas McNulty. It's odd he wrote this after those two books as if he was stuck in a groove because it's like an inferior version of both. The narrator rather rambles on in a somewhat sentimental vein. I skim read the last fifty pages becaus..more

The lad knows how to unspool a yarn, that is for certain.
If you're planning to read this book, I would caution you against reading long detailed reviews about the plot and characters. The story really needs to unfold at the author's pace in the proper sequence. If you have hints of what's coming, it will dull your enjoyment of the book.

It is the writing that makes this book special. Some lines are lyrical, for example when describing landscapes. Some are amusing, for example in dialogs. Some lines express in the most perfect words emotions, both jubilant and sad. Questions about existence and life and if one can even go on are written in words that speak to you. Well at least they did to me! Fear and loss and total aloneness, love and friendship and exuberant joy, betrayal and forgiveness are explored. This book movingly deals..more

A Discovered Happiness
A sad book that turns out not sad at all. 'Bill is dead. What is the sound of an eighty-nine-year-old heart breaking?' is the arresting opening. Grief-stricken at the death of her grandson, Irish expatriate Lily Bere wants only to set down her memories before putting a quiet end to her own life too. Each chapter, headed simply 'First Day without Bill' and so on, tells us a little bit about her present life and a lot about her past, until eventually the two meet up. She is l..more

When I started this book I just read the first 30 pages and did not get back to it until the next day and when I picked it up again I was hooked and could not put it down I really enjoyed this novel. I had previously read The Secret Scripture by Sebastian Barry and loved it so was looking forward to this book.

I have read three of Sebastian Barry's books so far, The Secret Scripture, Annie Dunne and this one. In all of them, he shows himself to be capable of creating hugely memorable characters and of relaying their thoughts in such beautiful language that I find myself rereading passages frequently. This is writing to savour like good wine, full of intense expression and deep feeling. I think my favourite of the three is Annie Dunne because Barry hardly bothers with any plot at all so the spare story..more

When I first tried reading Sebastian Barry's A Long Long Way, I had something of an adverse reaction and put it down; or rather, I threw it down, shouting why the fuck couldn't he just write one simple sentence without all that flowery, roundabout, get-there-in-the-end fluff and nonsense? In other words, there was something of a culture clash as this English boy found the Irish boy's use of language to be quite an alien thing. It wasn't until I heard Sebastian Barry read from the book that I got..more

I really wanted to love this book, with its naive yet poetic, rhythmic voice, but I could not. Instead, doubts clawed at me (what a spry crew of seniors up through nonagenerians we have in Lilly Bere, Mr. Nolan, Mr. Eugenides, etc. -- is it possible that an 89 year old could write her autobiography, including of her various forays from Bridgehampton beachside to village shops, and not have physical frailty, apart from the oddly featured constipation, enter into it?

I think this book wants to be an epic, but it never makes it. There are many wars, races, nations, events, but it just never comes together as a grand story. The major shortcoming is Lilly, the protagonist and narrator. Barry did a much stronger job of creating an aged Irish woman when he wrote Roseanne in The Secret Scripture. There are problems of voice with Lilly. Rarely does she speak as an Irish person, even though she was nearly twenty when she emigrated. The occasional little phrase is dr..more

I've found another author of whom I want to read more. I see now that this is part of a series, but I think it is a series by GR standards, in that some of the people in the 4 novels appear in the other novels. At least I hope that is the case, because this is the 4th in the series and I'm hoping that they are all stand alone novels.

I guess I'm alone in not liking this book. First, what everyone seems to think of a 'lyrical' language is, to me, run on sentences that lose the point as they ramble. More times than once I had to stop and think 'what on earth is the author getting at here?'. Second, the strange, rambling plot contrivances that seemed to appear and disappear without resolution..the serial killer? why was Joe's car at the location of the murders (or did the 'lyrical' language cause me to miss some key revelation..more

He’s written five novels now, a host of plays, and three poetry collections, and he’s collected several awards for his writing including the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, the Independent Bookseller’s Prize, and the Irish Book Awards Prize for “Best Novel.” Those of us who’re familiar with his work kno..more

3.5 Beautiful writing and so descriptive with the narrator a 89 yr. old woman, heartbroken after the suicide of her grandson. Very slow paced though and a lot of back and forth between her early childhood in Ireland and her present life. Don't think I was in the mood for a slow paced book and think this affected my rating.

I would have finished this book sooner, had I not loved it so much. As I told my friend, I spun the last few pages out like a stick of candy floss, I just could not bear for it to end. But there's no escaping the inevitable, and end it did. I don't think any review of this book from me could do it justice, I just feel I'm not up to the task. And although I loved, loved, LOVED it, I don't know if I understood the ending properly, so leaving that alone altogether. So for what it's worth, then, the..more

How can I do justice to such a wonderfully written book?
This is the story of the life of Lilly Dunne. It is full of love, strategy and treachery. This is the first Dunne family book I have listened to but hopefully not the last.
The narration by by Grainne Gillis was stunning and added to the sense of quiet dignity of the character.

To put it simply: Sebastian Barry writes so beautifully, so poetically, that when I read his books I find myself almost ashamed to admit that I’m also a writer – and a jealous one at that. His prose is so deeply humane and so well-crafted that almost reads like verse; verse that makes you want to cry; no, not from sorrow, but from joy, for having the privilege of reading it. I’m not implying that the subject matters with which the good author is preoccupied are pleasant, quite the opposite, they..more

I had a lot I wanted to say about this book, as I had just finished it, but then I got into a long, work-related conversation with a colleague, and now I find my brain mostly empty of thoughts where this book is concerned. That, perhaps, is a good indicator of how deeply affected I was by it. Mostly how I felt, by the end, was as though I was covered in a heavy smothering blanket of depression. Perhaps that’s the point. Perhaps that was the author’s goal in writing this book. When I read “litera..more

This is the second book I've read by Barry and I am seriously swooning. I'm staggered by his prose. He's one of the few writers I've read who can take the words of our common language, toss them up into the air & by the time they sashay back to earth Magic is Afoot. Is he bending the words to his will, transcribing celestial whispers, or maybe showing off some bad-ass alchemy? Don't know, don't care.
