Description
Diarmuid Devine is a teacher, and bachelor, destined for a lifetime of loneliness. One day he overhears a colleague mocking his sexual inexperience then he meets Una and a possible future appears. Set in an oppressive Belfast, stifled by religion and the conformity it imposes, Brian Moore explores the innocence, misunderstanding and consequences of Devines relationship with Una until rejection and the fear of scandal forces him to choose how he will live the rest of his life.
