  • This is the story of an Irish family in crisis. Dickie Barnes's once successful car sales business is going under; his wife Imelda came from abject poverty and is determined never to return; his daughter Cass is off to Uni which sends seismic shockwaves remembering his own time there; and his son PJ lives online where he's made a new friend who won't post a photo of himself. There's a family mythology about a bee which got caught up in Imelda's veil on her wedding day - but even that, like so much about them all, is not as it seems on the surface. This is big, epic and brilliant. - Joan
