Fiction

Cecil & Noreen

Patrick Corcoran
£6.99 Paperback (ISBN:1854113887)

A poignant, subtle, and amusing love story in which an elderly couple - Cecil and Noreen - reminisce about their courtship and marriage. In a nursing home, Cecil recollects and relives the marriage through the aide-memoir of Noreen’s preserved letters, kept in a box at his bedside. Noreen visits the ailing Cecil twice daily, and provides a more reliable version of the events the letters describe. Both are committed Catholics. The novel opens with their first meeting at church, at which Noreen accidentally floors Cecil with a ceremonial banner. Beautifully-written and deeply compassionate, Cecil & Noreen is a novel which ennobles the ’ordinary’ lives of its characters. Sequel to the admired Last Light Breaking.
