Description
Is the narrative of Rupert's life what actually happened? What does that mean? Memory and time are inextricably linked in this extraordinary exploration of how such connections can be simultaneously true, yet ambiguous. In a narrative spanning the Dublin lockout of 1913, through the horrors of the First World War and the Western Front, to the final bloody episodes of the Irish War of Independence, and civil war in Spain, Rupert's life experiences are narrated both as fact and recaptured as memories. The Crowded Earth is a psychological drama embedded in a world that simultaneously overwhelms and destroys in equal measure. It is for the reader to decide where truth lies.
