A baby is found abandoned on a windswept Irish beach, and nothing in this small coastal town will ever be the same again. The Boy from the Sea is Garrett Carr's moving tale of a boy that brings together a community, but changes a family forever . . .
'Compassionate, lyrical and full of devilment' - Louise Kennedy, author of Trespasses
'A joy . . . Vivid, loving and genuinely funny' The Sunday Times
'I didn't want it to ever end' Jennie Godfrey, author of The List of Suspicious Things
In 1973 on the west coast of Ireland, a baby is found abandoned on the beach. Who is he? Where is he from?
Ambrose, a local fisherman, is far more interested in who he will become and - with a curious community looking on - takes the baby home and adopts him. But for Declan, Ambrose's young son, this arrival is surely bad news. Rivalries can be decades in the making, and families are easy to break . . .
