My Father's House - by Joseph O'Connor

This book was very far from a disappointment In terms of quality of writing, the author has not lost his touch. Well drawn characters and a well paced story, as you might expect. There are quite a few characters, but I never lost track of who somebody was.  Some of the events described are quite shocking, but that’s war for you.
I liked the way snippets of Italian language are included, with no translation being provided. Most of them I could understand - I guessed at the others well enough.
I will try to not have such a long delay before I read any more of Joe O’Connor’s work.
