About Ordinary Saints
Can you imagine it? I’d say to them.
Can you imagine me there in the front row in Saint Peter’s Square? The lesbian sister of a literal saint.
Brought up in a devout household in Ireland, Jay is now living in London with her girlfriend, determined to live day to day and not think too much about either the future or the past. But when she learns that her beloved older brother, who died in a terrible accident, may be made into a Catholic saint, she realises she must at last confront her family, her childhood and herself…
Inspired by the author’s own devout upbringing, Ordinary Saints is a brilliant debut novel which asks – who gets to decide how we are remembered – and who we will become?
