Highly acclaimed Irish author Andrew Meehan joins Muswell Press with a richly resonant, bittersweet story of late life love. There is a growing market for stories of later life love, this is Normal People for pensioners
June cleans houses. Ray is a janitor at the public tennis courts in Dun Laoghaire. After lives spent picking up the pieces, he’s not romantic material, and she’s not even friend material. When it comes to learning how to be with other people at the age of 70 plus, they are unlikely companions, even more unlikely friends.
Ray looks a bit like Willie Nelson, June looks a bit like Chrissie Hynde. They've never fitted in before and they don't fit in now. They are just regular folk for whom the path towards love has been closed off. As understanding blossoms into friendship, June and Ray find themselves slowly rediscovering the joy that's been missing from their lives for so long.
The right person at the right time. Best Friends, this is your moment.
