Discover Foster by Claire Keegan, the Booker-shortlisted author of Small Things Like These. This captivating paperback, published on 18/08/2022 by Faber & Faber, spans 96 pages and falls under the Modern & contemporary fiction post c 1945 classification. ISBN13 EAN SKU is 9780571379149. Foster is a heartbreaking and haunting story that delves into themes of childhood loss and love, told by one of Ireland's most acclaimed writers. The narrative follows a young girl sent to live with foster parents on a farm during a hot summer in rural Ireland, uncertain of her return home. Within this new environment, she experiences warmth and affection previously unknown to her, slowly blossoming under their care. However, the story masterfully reveals the fragility of this newfound idyllic existence, hinting at secrets within the household. Praised as 'A real jewel' by the Irish Independent, 'A small miracle' by the Sunday Times, and 'A thing of finely honed beauty' by the Guardian, Foster is a profoundly affecting work. Early reviews also hail it as 'Thrilling' and compare it favorably to Chekhov. This poignant novel offers a deeply resonant exploration of family bonds and the complexities of growing up.
