In A Glassful of Letters' Conlon tackles emigration, working mothers, nonworking mothers, Republican prisoners, the inhumanity of big business, adultery, and a lot more. Employing a dramatic narrative structure in which much of the story takes place in a series of letters, and set partly in Ireland, partly in New York, this is a very modern Irish novel, one which takes on the recent (and ongoing) unprecedented self reexamination which has been going on in Ireland since the late 80's. Conlon skillfully interlinks the characters' stories to reflect the pressuresand pleasuresgenerated by rapidly changing social values. And at the heart of it all is the quiet bravery of one woman. ""[Conlon's] account of contemporary Ireland and the continuing Irish diaspora is sympathetic, wellmeasured and insightful.""Publishers Weekly ""Quietly passionate, t e novel is romantic but no stock romance. Rather, Conlon unfolds the seemingly simple psyche of an ordinary married woman to display a rich and complex intellectual and emotional life.""Booklist
