Set against the backdrop of 1950s Dublin, this memoir explores the complexities of identity and family through the eyes of a child caught in a cultural clash. Hugo Hamilton recounts his experiences as the son of a Gaelic-speaking Irish nationalist father and a German-speaking mother, navigating a household marked by tyranny and tenderness. The narrative reveals the struggles of being perceived as outsiders, facing societal prejudice, and the impact of language on personal and cultural identity, ultimately uncovering deep family secrets.
