About this listen
Meanwhile, the hospital is preparing to close and is evaluating its patients to determine whether they can return to society. Dr. Grene, Roseanne's caretaker, takes a special interest in her case. In his research, he discovers a document written by a local priest that tells a very different story of Roseanne's life than what she recalls. As doctor and patient attempt to understand each other, they begin to uncover long-buried secrets about themselves. Set against an Ireland besieged by conflict, The Secret Scripture is an epic story of love, betrayal, and unavoidable tragedy.

A lyrical, brilliant onion peel
Narrated so beautifully, this story paints a backdrop of the events of Ireland , while in the foreground a heart piercing tale of love, loss, injustice and forgiveness.

I've read this book many times, but this was best
my life is like a feather on the back of my hand waiting for the death wind.
after reading this book so many times in my life having this audio book put more energy and life into the book with the accent and hearing someone reading it just gave it such a body I recommend this book for everyone

So many secrets in a lifetime
A tale of the delicacy of love and honour.
Of solitude and finding joy in the life lived no matter how small.

Exceptional
I am only beginning to dry my eyes after listening to this incredible narrative of strength, suffering and courage not to mention intrigue and the unraveling of an intricately woven tapestry of history.
Loved it.
