So Late In The Day (novella) | Claire Keegan

2 posts | 2 read | 2 to read

After an uneventful Friday at the Dublin office, Cathal faces into the long weekend and takes the bus home. There, his mind agitates over a woman named Sabine with whom he could have spent his life, had he acted differently. All evening, with only the television and a bottle of champagne for company, thoughts of this woman and others intrude - and the true significance of this particular date is revealed.
From one of the finest writers working today, Keegan's new story asks if a lack of generosity might ruin what could be between men and women.

Kimzey I picked this up when I traveled to Ireland a few months ago. Looking forward to reading it! 3w

TheEllieMo @Kimzey as with, I think, all of Keegan‘s work, it‘s short but gives a lot to think about. 3w

It‘s a dull wet day here, so reading in front of the fire is the order of the day!

First published as part of a collection of three short stories under the name So Late in the Day, this little hardback contains just the title story. Keegan can pack so much into a few words, and this certainly makes one ponder about relationships, generosity, humour and misogyny.
