«Tara Road» is the contemporary fiction novel by Maeve Binchy, published by Orion in paperback (488 pages, in English).
Ria lives in Dublin and Marilyn in New England; they do not know each other, but a house swap over the summer offers them a way out: Ria has just discovered that her husband is leaving her for another woman, and Marilyn cannot get over the death of her only son. By stepping into each other's lives, both will meet new neighbours and friends, and end up forging a friendship that will change the way they face the past.
Originally published in 1998, this paperback edition was the first; the novel was adapted into a film.
For readers of stories about female friendship and contemporary Irish fiction.
Anne Maeve Binchy Snell was an Irish novelist, playwright, short story writer, columnist, and speaker. Her novels were characterised by a sympathetic and often humorous portrayal of small-town life in Ireland, and surprise endings. Her novels, which were translated into 37 languages, sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. Her death at age 73, announced by Vincent Browne on Irish television late on 30 July 2012, was mourned as the death of one of Ireland's best-loved and most recognisable writers.
