1847. Macroom, County Cork.After the landslide of their descent through 1846, Pádraig and Cáit Ua Buachalla awaken to a new year fraught with the worst of weather, worse luck and a new level of problems to compound their desperate struggle to survive.At the heart of town, Paulellen Creed struggles to maintain her dignity and keep the shop running in the absence of her husband, the pawnbroker. Around them all, depending on who they look to, the community appears to be either imploding or carrying on as usual.In Declan O'Rourke's powerful new instalment in his epic Great Famine saga, follow a heart wrenching story of tragedy and human beauty entwined as, through the voices of Macroom in 1847, we hear a whisper from oblivion.'A harrowing and powerful story, told with passion and love – there's music in every line.'
