Publisher's summary

In the courtyards of Trinity College, Dublin, in 1978, aspiring actress Maeve meets pottery student Murtagh Moone. As their relationship progresses, marriage and motherhood come in quick succession, but for Maeve, with the joy of children also comes the struggle to hold on to the truest parts of herself.

Decades later, on a small Irish island, the Moone family is poised for celebration but instead is struck by tragedy. Each family member must find solace in their own separate way, until one dazzling truth brings them back together. But as the Moone family confronts the past, they also journey toward a future that none of them could have predicted - except perhaps Maeve herself.

Amazing story

The characters were woven wonderfully and I fell in love with this family. Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, the truth of a family living with mental illness- a disease in which medicine has made progress and society is beginning to understand better. We’ve still a way to go to helping individuals suffering to find a peaceful existence. But like this book, there is hope!

The Dazzling Truth is poignantly beautiful!

Cullen writes in the most captivating prose. The words absolutely draw you in and leave you breathless, wanting more, regardless of how painful it is to experience the written words. Imperfect people, fitting their lives together through tragedy and again happiness, both painfully and then again with great hope, this novel is so beautifully written. Truly it covers some difficult issues with deep compassion.
