About this listen

From the award-winning author of Hamnet and The Marriage Portrait: an irresistible novel about the collapse—and reawakening—of an unlikely marriage between an American professor and a reclusive actress.

Daniel Sullivan, a young American professor reeling from a failed marriage and a brutal custody battle, is on vacation in Ireland when he falls in love with a world-famous actress who has fled fame for a rural village. Together, they make an idyllic life in the country, raising two more children in blissful seclusion—until a secret from Daniel's past threatens to destroy their meticulously constructed and fiercely protected home.

Shot through with humour and wisdom, This Must Be the Place is a captivating story of love in the twenty-first century from “one of the most exciting novelists alive” (The Washington Post).

Disappointing

O’Farrell writes well. I’ve read a couple of her other books and enjoyed them very much. This one is over-long, over-written and has too many characters. Beautiful description but too much of it, too many pages where nothing happens. I read to the end but was glad to be finished.
