What a stunning novella which taught me more than I ever knew about the Magdalen laundries. My first book by Claire Keegan but I'm off to find the next

Tightly told tale of small quotidian acts that build a strong conscious in a person. Beautiful story.
Powerful little book. A compelling view of things through the eyes (and heart and mind) of Bill Furlong, a surprisingly sensitive man fighting against complicity. I enjoyed the descriptions of the crows at several points in the story. I both read and listened to the book (about 50-50) and thought the audiobook narration by Aidan Kelly was good.
