Sarah Crossan
‘A beautiful, perfect, moving read’ – Cecelia Ahern, author of PS, I Love You
The outstanding novel from the Carnegie Medal-winning, former Laureate na nÓg Sarah Crossan; thought-provoking and moving, it explores love and family during The Great Hunger.
Ireland, 1846. Nell is working as a scullery maid in the kitchen of the Big House. Once she loved school and books and dreaming. But there's not much choice of work when the land grows food that rots in the earth. Now she is scrubbing, peeling, washing, sweeping for Sir Philip Wicken, the man who owns her home, her family's land, their crops, everything. His dogs are always well fed, even as famine sets in.
Upstairs in the Big House, where Nell is forbidden to enter, is Johnny Browning, newly arrived from England: the young nephew who will one day inherit it all. And as hunger and disease run rampant all around them, a spark of life and hope catches light when Nell and Johnny find each other.
This is a love story, and the story of a people being torn apart. This is a powerful and unforgettable novel from the phenomenally talented Sarah Crossan.
‘A beautifully written, tightly observed novel’ – The Times
'Unmissable' – Daily Mail
‘Irresistibly emotive’ – The Sunday Times
‘Thrums with longing, beauty, loss and strength’ – Katya Balen, author of October, October

批評家のレビュー
One of our finest novelists. Where the Heart Should Be is a thing of beauty.
Sarah Crossan’s writing is powerful and necessary
A tour de force from Sarah Crossan
Where the Heart Should Be thrums with longing, beauty, loss and strength.
A beautifully written, tightly observed novel... completely absorbing. (Lucy Bannerman)
With tenderness and unexpected humour, this story is irresistibly emotive as events unfold with almost unbearable tension, mitigated only by the promise at the beginning that true love wins (Nicolette Jones)
Outstanding... Crossan's economy of words is no barrier to intense emotional impact in this powerhouse of a novel
A beautiful, perfect, moving read (Cecelia Ahern)
Mesmerising, beautiful and full of rage (Holly Bourne)
Unmissable
Terrific on every level
