Nell, a rare female Master of Wine, enjoys an uncluttered and elegant life in Paris, sharing her days with Lulu - a cantankerous poodle - and Henri, her lover and married vineyard owner. The peace of her carefully constructed world is shattered when her daughter's neighbour in Ireland phones, with news so worrying that Nell can no longer avoid her long overdue return to Ireland. It will be the first in over thirty years. A poignant and gripping exploration of love, loss and the nature of memory itself, The Memory Stones is a moving study of the intricacies of mother/daughter relationships, observed with razor-sharp precision and great tenderness.
