Bee Sting

I loved reading this book even though it devastated me. 

Frederik De Bosschere

Chris Dailey

Tragicomic story about the rise and fall of a well to do family in rural Ireland during the financial crisis. Using oscillating perspectives, we follow the Barnes family's slow economic and emotional decline as the veneer of wealth recedes to unveil a collection of unhappy souls. Family is front and center along with class, sexuality, friendship, loneliness, death and religion. A quick and engaging read that has more than one moments of devastation.
