Synopsis "Long Island"

"Long Island" by Colm Tóibín The sequel to the prize-winning, bestselling novel Brooklyn.

A man with an Irish accent appears at Eilis Fiorello’s door on Long Island, changing everything in an instant. Since leaving Brooklyn, Eilis and Tony have built a secure, contented life—a bit stifled by the in-laws close by, but solid after twenty years of marriage and with two children heading toward a bright future.

But the stranger’s arrival reveals a truth that makes Eilis question the life she has created. For the first time in years, she feels the distance from Ireland keenly, pulling her thoughts back across the ocean. The revelation compels her to consider a return to Ireland, to her mother, and to the people and places she once chose to leave.

Did she make the right choice marrying Tony all those years ago? And, now, is it too late to imagine a different life?

Long Island by Colm Tóibín is an exquisite and exhilarating novel that explores whether we can truly revisit the past and rediscover a love once thought lost. This long-awaited sequel to Brooklyn masterfully examines the themes of choice, memory, and the longing for home.
