My Faithful Heart

More about the book

Anna Burdish is an undergraduate full of hopes and visions. Her view of life is shaped by the grandeur of Yeats' poetry and the romance of Irish history. However, it isn't long before Anna's high hopes are dashed; her romantic longings are thwarted by her middle-aged, alcoholic Professor and she is disillusioned with her studies. Then one day, she meets glamorous Claudio and is dazzled. At last her life can begin. But it is only a matter of time before dreams and reality collide with devastating consequences. Set in 1980s Dublin, this is a moving coming-of-age story that you won't be able to put down.
