Reviews
Jessie Buckley's performance of these characters is so rich that listeners need not worry if they're unfamiliar with BROOKLYN, the first novel in which they appear...One of Buckley's narrating gifts is her ability to project Lacey's silences. She allows intimate conversations to unfold with quiet immediacy. The result is a performance that fits perfectly the humanity of Tóibín's cast. It is so winning and full of depth that the most evocative passages stand alone as their own moments. Listeners can't help but be drawn close.

Synopsis
OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK * INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * "Stunning." -- People * "Dazzling yet devastating...Tóibín is simply one of the world's best living literary writers." -- The Boston Globe * "Momentous and hugely affecting." -- The Wall Street Journal * From the beloved, critically acclaimed, bestselling author comes a spectacularly moving novel featuring Eilis Lacey, the complex and enigmatic heroine of Brooklyn , Tóibín's most popular work in twenty years. Eilis Lacey is Irish, married to Tony Fiorello, a plumber and one of four Italian American brothers, all of whom live in neighboring houses on a cul-de-sac in Lindenhurst, Long Island, with their wives and children and Tony's parents, a huge extended family. It is the spring of 1976 and Eilis is now forty with two teenage children. Though her ties to Ireland remain stronger than those that hold her to her new land and home, she has not returned in decades. One day, when Tony is at work an Irishman comes to the door asking for Eilis by name. He tells her that his wife is pregnant with Tony's child and that when the baby is born, he will not raise it but instead deposit it on Eilis's doorstep. It is what Eilis does--and what she refuses to do--in response to this stunning news that makes Tóibín's novel so riveting and suspenseful. Long Island is a gorgeous story "about a woman thrashing against the constraints of fate" (Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air ). It is "a wonder, rich with yearning and regret" ( Star Tribune , Minneapolis)., OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK * INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * NAMED A NOTABLE BOOK OF 2024 BY THE WASHINGTON POST * NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2024 BY NPR * WINNER OF THE PRIX FEMINA * "Stunning." -- People * "Dazzling yet devastating...Tóibín is simply one of the world's best living literary writers." -- The Boston Globe * "Momentous and hugely affecting." -- The Wall Street Journal * From the beloved, critically acclaimed, bestselling author comes a spectacularly moving novel featuring Eilis Lacey, the complex and enigmatic heroine of Brooklyn , Tóibín's most popular work in twenty years.

    Item arrived on time and was packaged well. The item was exactly as advertised and was amazing value compared to other places. The seller was also incredibly speedy at replying to my enquiries. Although it was not the fault of the seller (the packaging used to send the item was more than sufficient), my figure did have a manufacturing defect (the left hand was broken off). Thankfully superglue put it back in place and no one can tell it was broken.

    Very pleased with product, and was exactly as advertised and fairly priced. There was a little confusion over the expected delivery date - different dates were being quoted - however seller responded immediately to contact, and product was delivered promptly following contact. Postal tracking service was excellent. Very pleased with purchase.
