Red Sky in Morning

The debut novel by Paul Lynch, winner of the 2023 Booker Prize for Prophet Song. Donegal, Ireland, 1832: after a violent confrontation with his landlord's son, tenant farmer Coll Coyle is forced to flee his home and family, pursued by the relentless John Faller across Ireland and on to the railroad camps of Pennsylvania. A dark, lyrical and gripping novel of flight and pursuit, written in the intense, poetic prose that has become Lynch's hallmark.
