From the bestselling and PEN/Faulkner Award-winning author of
Netherland, a fascinating, personal, and beautifully crafted family
history.
Joseph O’Neill’s grandfathers–one Turkish, one Irish–were both
imprisoned for suspected subversion during the Second World War.
The Irish grandfather, a handsome rogue from a family of small
farmers, was an active member of the IRA. O’Neill’s other
grandfather, a debonair hotelier from the tiny and threatened
Turkish Christian minority, was interned by the British in
Palestine on suspicion of being an Axis spy.
With intellect, compassion, and grace, O’Neill sets the stories
of these individuals against the history of the last century’s most
inhuman events.
