Detachment explores the complex tapestry of identity, family, and political tension in Northern Ireland. Returning home for his grandfather's funeral, a man confronts not only grief but also the ever-present undercurrent of sectarian division and the upcoming referendum on a united Ireland. His journey from England back to Derry becomes a poignant exploration of belonging, memory, and the subtle ways in which the past continues to shape the present. As he reconnects with his family and navigates the charged atmosphere of his hometown, he grapples with his own sense of detachment, both from his roots and from the life he has built away from them. Detachment is a powerful story of personal reflection set against the backdrop of a nation at a crossroads, questioning what it means to belong and the enduring power of place.
Andrea Catherwood, renowned Northern Irish broadcaster and journalist, calls it, "A gripping story, very well told. It's a clever novel with lots of heart. I devoured it."
