The Brightest Star In The Sky
Author: Marian Keyes
Publisher: Michael Joseph
Price: $34.00 (Hardcover)

The latest novel by Irish author Marian Keyes follows the residents at 66 Star Street in Dublin. There’s Maeve and Matt, newlyweds who mask unhappiness through their kind acts. Above, 80-something-year-old Jessica spends her days with her dog and reclusive son Fionn. Lydia, the tough, savvy cab driver lives atop them with her two Polish roommates. And self-conscious music publicist Katie inhabits the top flat, questioning whether her boyfriend will commit. This character-driven comic drama explores the varied experiences of the Star Street citizens, with frequent appearances by a strange visitor, set on probing their private lives.
