In THE RETURN JOURNEY, Maeve Binchy reveals, yet again, her incomparable understanding of matters of the heart, bringing ordinary people to life with her trademark warmth and humour. Told by a variety of wives, husbands, sons, daughters, lovers and strangers, these tales are filled with her wit, charm and story-telling genius.
There are star-crossed travellers who take each other’s bags by mistake, only to learn that when you unlock a stranger’s suitcase you enter a stranger’s life: the house-sitter who moves into her client’s life as well as her home; a holiday for four in Greece which has surprising consequences; and the chance encounter at an airport which brings together an unlikely group of people.
Full of love, loss, revelations and reconciliation, this enchanting collection show Maeve Binchy at the height of her powers.
