Synopsis
When 38-Year-old Conner O’Rourke arrives in Ireland after an absence of thirty years, his life is in bits. His marriage is falling apart, his advertising agency in Australia is bankrupt, and he is hearing poetic voices in his mind urging him to return to his childhood home. The island of Inis Mór. His grandmother has contacted him, saying that she is dying and must speak with him, but when he arrives on Inis Mór, a hauntingly lonely, starkly beautiful island in Galway Bay, she has already passed, leaving him a cottage and a dilapidated old sailing boat. A mysterious old stranger appears, offering to help rebuild the boat and, as they work together, the old man tells Conner stories of Ireland. Stories of courage, purpose, and passion. Stories that could redeem Conner’s life, if he can muster the courage to follow his heart.
“Brian O’Raleigh’s new book: Passage to Inis Mór - reminds one great Irish writers, such as Sean O’Faolain and Benedict Kiely.” Frank O’Shea - The Australian Irish Echo.
