By the house at Shancarrig stands a copper beech, its bark scarred with the names and dreams of the pupils who have grown up under its branches.

Under Junior Assistant Mistress Maddy Ross's careful gaze the children play, but out of Maddy's gaze lingers where it shouldn't.

Maura Brennan, a bundle of fun from the rough end of town, plays with her pals: leap year baby Eddie Barton, the apple of his mother's eye, and Nessa Ryan, who little realises as she carves his name at the roots of the copper beech on the very last day of that she'll get a lot more from one of her mates than her first shy kiss.

About the Author:

Maeve Binchy was the literary equivalent of a big, comforting hug. Born in Dublin, Ireland in 1940, Maeve had a magical way of turning everyday lives into extraordinary stories that made readers feel right at home—like they were sitting by the fire, tea in hand, listening to an old friend spill the best kind of secrets.

Before becoming a beloved novelist, Maeve was a teacher and a journalist (she once reported from Israel using a typewriter and carbon paper—iconic). Her first book, Light a Penny Candle, lit the way for a career full of bestselling novels that captured the heart and soul of Irish life, love, and friendship. Her writing was rich with lovable characters, small-town drama, big feelings, and just the right amount of wit.

Books like Circle of Friends, Tara Road, and Evening Class didn’t just entertain—they wrapped readers in a world so real you’d swear you’d met the characters in the local shop. She didn’t need high-speed car chases or masked villains—her drama lived in family kitchens, whispered confessions, and long-standing feuds that could only happen in a tight-knit community.

Maeve Binchy made the ordinary feel extraordinary. Her books are the kind you finish with a smile, a tear, and a sudden urge to call your oldest friend.
