As violence flares, the characters face a battle between public persona and inner desires. Through a chorus of unique voices, each struggling to tell their own kind of truth, a single authentic tale unfolds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Spinning Heart\u003c\/i\u003e speaks for contemporary Ireland like no other novel. Wry, vulnerable, all-too human, it captures the language and spirit of rural Ireland and with uncanny perception articulates the words and thoughts of a generation. Technically daring and evocative of Patrick McCabe and J.M. Synge, this novel of small-town life is witty, dark, and sweetly poignant. Donal Ryan’s brilliantly realized debut announces a stunning new voice in fiction.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eIrish Book of the Decade (Dublin Book Festival)\u003cbr\u003e First Book Award (\u003ci\u003eThe Guardian\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e “Newcomer of the Year” and “Book of the Year” (Irish Book Award)\u003cbr\u003e “Best Book of the Year” (\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50954462003488,"sku":"9781805680307","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/products\/the-spinning-heart","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
