In Send My Roots Rain, Miss Gilhooley, a librarian, waits in the lobby of a posh Dublin hotel-expecting to meet a celebrated poet while reflecting on the great love who disappointed her. The Irish workers of “The Shovel Kings” have pipe dreams of becoming millionaires in London, but long for their quickly changing homeland-exiles in both places. “Green Georgette” is a searing anatomy of class, through the eyes of a little girl; “Old Wounds” illuminates the importance of family and memory in old age. In language that is always bold and vital, Edna O’Brien pays tribute to the universal forces that rule our lives.
