Description
Once a promising poet, Jamie Mangan now lives in New York as a journalist—quietly eclipsed by his wife, the celebrated film star Beatrice Abbott. When a sudden shift in fortune draws him to Ireland, he returns to the small town of Dinshane to investigate the family story he’s inherited, hoping it will finally explain who he is. What begins as a search for personal identity becomes an increasingly unsettling confrontation with legacy, memory, and the ways the past can claim ownership over the present. With Brian Moore’s characteristic psychological sharpness and understated unease, *The Mangan Inheritance* explores themes of self-invention, artistic promise, and the danger of looking too closely at what came before.
