Time of the Child by Niall Williams
We are back in the remote village of Faha which featured in This is Happiness (bwl 96) - it's 1962, the first Sunday in Advent, a baby is found abandoned in the village graveyard . . . promising stuff, told in Williams' inimitable style, yet I and my book group just couldn't believe the doctor and his daughter would behave as they did. Intrigued? Perhaps you'd better read it and see if you agree!
