Summary
Compelling, heart-breaking, and emotionally vivid, When You’re Gone will break your heart and fix it anew. A gripping and emotional novel about family, love and sacrifice.
It is 1958: In a small town like Athenry, people talk. Everyone’s noticed that the injury which stopped Annie Fagan’s father from working doesn’t prevent him from hitting his wife. But a man’s home is his castle, and no one is going to intervene. Until Annie runs into Arthur ‘Sketch’ Talbot. Sketch is determined to help Annie, and the two soon fall in love. But Annie’s father won’t give his daughter up lightly, and Sketch’s attempts to save her will have devastating consequences....
Now: Holly’s world is falling apart. Her unborn baby is seriously ill, her relationship is fracturing before her eyes, and her Nana is dying. But Nana has one final wish before she leaves: to read, one last time, the handwritten story of her first – and last – love, Arthur ‘Sketch’ Talbot. As Holly reads to Nana, could it help her find the strength to face her own future? Could fulfilling her grandmother’s final wish really be a gift for Holly?

Emotional
Beautifully told Irish women’s fiction, there’s love both family and romantic as well as heartache. Have the tissues handy. Trigger warning for domestic violence. Keen to listen to more by this author. The narrator is excellent and brings this book to life.

Enjoyed the whole book. Sometimes I didn’t get what “nana” was saying. It made me cry.

meh
it's alright. story drags a bit and there are some parts that I couldn't help think why is this relevant. its an OK story but can be a bit frustrating. I wouldn't recommend it to be honest
