Book
'Flight' is the story of four travellers as their journey intersect one winter in Dublin. Sandrine, a Zimbabwean woman who has left her husband and son behind the hope of making a better life for them in Ireland, is alone and secretly pregnant. She finds herself working as a carer for Tom and Clare, a couple whose travels are ending as their minds begin to fail. Meanwhile Elizabeth, their world-weary daughter, carries the weight of her own body's secret. Set in Ireland in 2004 as a referendum on citizenship approaches, 'Flight' is a magically observed story of family and belonging, following the gestation of a friendship during a year of crisis.
