'A powerful and moving collection' Roddy Doyle ___________________ A group of British soldiers appear to help a farmer and his daughter free their horse from a stream in a flood. A young boy and his mother, under cover of night, painstakingly prepare for the marching season ahead. And a young woman and her son sit over a game of chess in a Galway caravan, their thoughts elsewhere - in the Derry prison where a young man is slowly succumbing to hunger strike. Everything in this Country Must reveals the reverberations of political tragedy in the most intimate lives of men and women, parents and children - and confirms Colum McCann as a master storyteller. 'These are powerful stories - gritty, memorable and ambitious . Goes straight to the heart, both in terms of its theme and its emotional punch' Edna O'Brien 'McCann writes with a dazzling blend of menace and heartbreak' New York Times 'McCann returns to Ireland with this collection, turning his measured gaze and incisive prose to the country's recent history with devastating effect' Maggie O'Farrell
