Description
Enthralling Observer
A spectacular read Sunday Express
An award-winning writer at the top of her game Telegraph
A moving story of overlapping lives from the Orange Prize-winning author of Bel Canto
Run is a tale of growth and discovery as Tip and Teddy edge into adulthood under the watchful gaze of their adoptive father, Bernard Doyle. Tip, a student at Harvard, finds solace in the world of science, while Teddy believes he has discovered his path within the Church. Both brothers feel the weight of their father's protective ambitions for them.
When an unexpected accident on an icy road ensnares the Doyle family, they are compelled to face hard truths about their lives, the lingering impact of Bernadette Doyle's death on their family, and the enigma of an unknown observer always present in the background.
