Items related to Big Snow
When a rare blizzard strikes the north of Ireland in 1963, the inhabitants of one city find their intimate desires thrown into sharp relief. A wife dies before a husband can make his confession; her coffin is pulled to the church by a young man engulfed by his first romantic feelings. Elsewhere, an old woman searches madly for a wedding dress, and a lonely headmaster is tempted into indiscretion. In the heart of the city, meanwhile, the white snow is tainted by the murder of a young woman. As one man begins to unravel the city's dark secrets, he must race against time to find the murderer before the snow melts.

David Park peers into the souls of his characters with an insight and compassion that make the flawed slice of humanity somehow glorious. He is a writer of rare dignity and talent.
