Title: Reunion - Anne Enright - book
Summary :
Man Booker Prize for Fiction 2007
Veronica thinks she knows her brother, and yet, the day she learns that he has thrown himself into the ocean, she realizes that she knows very little about him. In feverish nights of writing, she captures and recomposes images of the past to understand. In their large family, he is not the first to suffer. What role does Eros play in these destinies of loss and
of reunion? Speaking of love and disappointment, of strong desires and frustration, this novel was awarded the prestigious Booker Prize in 2007. It belongs to that Irish tradition which combines literary know-how and fiery frankness.
Born in Dublin in 1962, Anne Enright was first an actress and television producer before devoting herself entirely to literature. Her books have won numerous awards.
