About this listen

Stay follows Abbey, a young woman from Canada now living in a village outside Galway. She falls in love with Dermot, an older Irish man, in an unconventional, affectionate but troubled relationship.

The extraordinary skill of Stay lies in its unsentimental depiction of modern Ireland. The inhabitants of Dermot's village form a riotous and poignant chorus, commenting on their rapidly changing world with wit and insight. Here is a beautiful, funny and richly rewarding novel about history and obligation, and above all, the meaning of human connection in a land poised uneasily between past and present

Almost a prose poem

Quiet, lyrical, and smart. Love the vivid scenes, by turns beautiful, horrible, and hilarious.

not coherent

Difficult to follow. Many characters but their relationships not clear. Difficult with no clear ending.
