A Cautious Man

By Miriam A. Walker

During Ireland's Celtic Tiger era, bachelor Moss Mortimer takes a year off from the rat race when he quits his job in a Dublin bank after twenty years there. Moss also moves out of the family home in Clontarf to a vacant flat in his house in salubrious Sandymount, leaving his envious sister, Louise, and their reclusive, divorced mother, Clare, to contend with his absence and with each other. As the months go by, the story reveals entertaining insights into the intricacies of relationships including the culture of 'begrudgery' or envy of success, the obsession with owning property and the consequences of resisting and risking change.
