So Late in the Day

An exquisite new short story from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Small Things Like These and Foster. 'A genuine once-in-a-generation writer.' The Times On a day like any other, Cathal completes a day's work at the office and travels home. His mind wanders: to a woman called Sabine, to their days spent together at art galleries, farmer's markets, picking blackberries. To their conversations. And he tries very hard not to think about why today is now such a surprisingly ordinary day. 'Every word is the right word in the right place, and the effect is resonant and deeply moving.' Hilary Mantel 'Claire Keegan makes her moments real - and then she makes them matter.' Colm Tóibín
