{"product_id":"the-fall-of-light-1","title":"Niall Williams: The Fall of Light [2006] paperback","description":"Francis Foley is a proud, stubborn man, and cannot stand to be beholden to anyone. Quick to anger and slow to forgiveness, it is his temper that, one day, costs his sons their home - and their mother. This will not be the last of their losses however: as the four boys and their father embark on an odyssey to find untenanted land they can call their own, their already diminished family is divided still further. But if a combination of choice and chance cause the five to separate and scatter, each to their own road, then a series of casual encounters and coincidences offer some hope for reunion and - in Francis's case - redemption. Set in Ireland in the mid-nineteenth century, \"The Fall of Light\" traces the footsteps of the five Foley men. With elegant, elegiac prose, Niall Williams guides his characters - and his readers - through hazard and hardship, friendship, love and death, through to Europe, America and Africa ...and home again.","brand":"Williams, Niall","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":52145691885907,"sku":"9780330487009","price":10.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":48160057983315,"sku":"XG80330487009","price":4.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":52145691853139,"sku":"XV80330487009","price":5.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/williams-niall-niall-williams-the-fall-of-light-2006-paperback-1198453818.jpg?v=1760792478","url":"https:\/\/theirishbookshop.live\/products\/the-fall-of-light-1","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
