The Woods

De: Seamus O'Connor

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In the wake of their youngest sister’s death, the four O'Neill girls—bright, headstrong, and bound by grief—begin to unravel. Raised in privilege in post–Civil War Northern Ireland, they each make radical choices that defy convention and fracture their family’s fragile unity.From the bohemian chaos of 1920s Paris to a Bolshevik uprising in a convent, from illicit affairs to violent clashes with British troops, their paths diverge wildly. Yet each sister is propelled by a fierce urgency—to live, to love, to rebel—and their convictions soon collide in a reckoning that threatens to destroy what remains of their bond.Set in 1925, when Ireland’s wounds are still fresh and loyalties run deep, The Woods explores a family torn between two worlds: their father, a magistrate loyal to the English crown; their mother, descended from rebel nobility and unflinching in her nationalist fervor. As political tensions mirror personal ones, the O'Neill sisters must choose between duty and desire, tradition and transformation.
