Experience the captivating narrative of Trespasses by Louise Kennedy, a paperback novel published on March 30, 2023, by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC. This compelling work, spanning 320 pages, delves into a love story set against the backdrop of escalating tensions and daily violence. The story centers on Cushla, who encounters Michael, a married man from Belfast, in a pub owned by her family. This fateful meeting, occurring in February, becomes a pivotal moment that irrevocably alters both their lives. The world of Trespasses is one where ordinary lives unfold amidst extraordinary circumstances, with the pervasive reality of car bombs and beatings forming a stark contrast to the everyday routines of work, school, and family. Even the youngest children, like those in Cushla's class, are exposed to the harsh vocabulary of conflict, using terms like 'petrol bomb' and 'rubber bullets'. As Cushla navigates complex situations and finds herself crossing previously unimagined lines, the escalating tensions within the town threaten the very fabric of what she strives to preserve. This unforgettable debut has been recognized for its profound impact, being longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2023, winning the An Post Irish Book Awards Novel of the Year 2022, and shortlisted for the British Book of the Year Debut Fiction and the Waterstones Debut Fiction Prize 2022. It was also acknowledged as an Observer Best Debut Novelist of 2022 and featured as a BBC Radio 4 Book at Bedtime. The book is classified under Europe and carries the ISBN13 9781526623362.
