A long-haired woman moves into the priest's house and sets fire to his furniture. A forester mortgages his land and goes off to a seaside town to look for a wife. A Harvard student flies south to celebrate his birthday at his step-father's condominium by the sea. And in the title story, a priest waits on the altar for a bride and battles, all that wedding day, with his memories of a love affair. In her long-awaited second collection, Claire Keegan observes an Ireland wrestling with its past, and it is against this landscape that the stories of Walk the Blue Fields so beautifully articulate all the yearnings of the human heart.
