Small Things Like These

 
 
 

It is 1985, in an Irish town. During the weeks leaving up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal and timber merchant, faces into his busiest season. Early one morning, he makes a delivery to the local convent - and confronts the darkness and complicit silences of a town controlled by the church.

The long-awaited new work by the author of FosterSmall Things Like These is an unforgettable story of hope, quiet heroism and tenderness.
