'Engrossing, funny, delightfully wicked' Irish Times
'A novel for anyone who ever wondered what the neighbours are really up to behind closed doors' Jan Carson, author of The Raptures
Ballyrowan is a sleepy corner of rural Ireland where nothing ever happens. Where everyone knows everyone else's business, and everyone has an opinion on it. Where family feuds simmer and intensify across the generations. Where young and old delight in dragging each other down like crabs in a barrel.
Following the fortunes of this small community from the mid-20th century to the early 21st, Mouthing is a bittersweet love letter to the pleasures (and frustrations) of village life.
'Full of disgrace, inherited trauma and family secrets. It will make you laugh - because if you didn't, you'd surely cry' Aingeala Flannery
