\nA remarkable Irish family saga about the messiness of modern family life--a major debut from a blazing new talent that's already an international sensation \nSarah Gilmartin gives us terrific, complex characters and strong themes, in prose that is charged with insight. --Anne Enright \n \nThe search is off -- here is our next read. Here is an expert writer. --Meg Mason \n \nA riveting, beautifully written, and poignant coming-of-age story about the heartrending complications of sibling relationships and the trauma of family secrets, perfect for fans of Kate Atkinson, Maggie O'Farrell, and Anne Enright. \n \nKate has taught herself to be careful, to be meticulous. \n \nTo mark the anniversary of a death in the family, she plans a dinner party - from the fancy table settings to the perfect Baked Alaska waiting in the freezer. Yet by the end of the night, old tensions have flared, the guests have fled, and Kate is spinning out of control. \n \nBut all we have is ourselves, her father once said, all we have is family. \n \nSet between the 1990s and the present day, from a farmhouse in Carlow to Trinity College, Dublin, Dinner Party is a dark, sharply observed debut told with sharp, elegant humour that thrillingly unravels into family secrets and tragedy.\n
