Foster

'A real jewel. ' Irish Independent. 'A small miracle. ' Sunday Times. 'A thing of finely honed beauty. ' Guardian. 'Thrilling. ' Richard Ford. 'As good as Chekhov. ' David Mitchell. It is a hot summer in rural Ireland. A girl is sent to live with foster parents on a farm, not knowing when she will return home. In the strangers' house, she finds a warmth and affection she has not known before and slowly begins to blossom in their care. But in a house where there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers how fragile her idyll is.
