From Barnes & NobleTo say that this fiction has been much anticipated is to understate: It's been three years since Jan Karon's Home to Holly Springs, the first of her Father Tim novels. In The Company of Others doesn't disappoint. Father Tim and Cynthia's trip to the west of Ireland brings them into contact with a dysfunctional family pinned between guilt and concealment.
Publishers WeeklyIn Karon's latest, Fr. Timothy Kavanagh, the moral center of the beloved Mitford series, hops the Atlantic for a long anticipated vacation in the Irish countryside. He and his wife settle in at Broughadoon, a B&B run by Liam and Anna Conor in County Sligo, and Father Tim is happy to be reacquainted with his ancestral homeland. He's particularly taken with Catharmore, a sprawling 19th-century estate that was Liam's childhood home.
