Synopsis

Imogen Langrishe, the youngest of the four Langrishe sisters, whose name has long been a byword for money, status and respectability to the people of Celbridge, County Kildare, embarks on a reckless love affair. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling 1930s Europe, Aidan Higgins's classic novel depicts the demise of the old order of power in Ireland, as Imogen's loss of inhibition leads her deeper into the sensual yet lonely world of despair and heartbreak.
