Himself by Jess Kidd

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In Himself, Mahoney is investigating his mother’s death in a small Irish town, and villagers both dead and alive are drawn into his quest.

The writing is unique and lively. I rarely do this, but I knocked off a star because magical realism just isn’t really my cup of tea. I’m interested to follow this author and see what she does next.
