This Must Be the Place by Maggie O’Farrell is a nonlinear literary novel centering on the complex marriage of Daniel Sullivan, an American-Irish linguistics lecturer, and Claudette Wells, a reclusive former film star living in the Irish wilderness. The story explores themes of redemption, missed opportunities, and the fluidity of time, with a disjointed narrative that moves across continents and decades to examine how past secrets affect present relationships.
A reclusive former film star living in the wilds of Ireland, Claudette Wells thinks nothing of firing a gun if strangers get too close to her house. Why is she so fiercely protective of her family, and what made her walk out on her career at the height of her fame?
Her husband Daniel, reeling from a discovery about a woman he last saw twenty years ago, is about to make an exit of his own. It is a journey that will send him off-course, far from home. Will his love for Claudette be enough to bring him back?
This Must Be The Place crosses continents and time zones, creating a portrait of an extraordinary marriage, the forces that hold it together and the pressures that drive it apart.
