From the internationally celebrated author of Brooklyn and The Master, and winner of the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award, comes a stunning new book of fiction.\n In the captivating stories that make up The Empty Family, Colm Toibin delineates with a tender and unique sensibility, lives of unspoken or unconscious longing, of individuals often willingly cast adrift from their history. From the young Pakistani immigrant who seeks some kind of permanence in a strange town, to the Irish woman reluctantly returning to Dublin and discovering a city that refuses to acknowledge her long absence, each of Toibin's stories manage to contain whole worlds: stories of fleeing the past and returning home, of family threads lost and ultimately regained.\n Like Toibin's celebrated novels, and his previous short story collection, Mothers and Sons, reviewed on the front page of the \"New York Times\" Book Review, The Empty Family will further confirm Toibin's status as \"his generation's most gifted writer of love's complicated, contradictory power.\" (\"Los Angeles Times\") \"From the Hardcover edition.\"
