Maeve Binchy Omnibus: Circle Of Friends & Silver Wedding

Description

The Maeve Binchy Omnibus: Circle of Friends & Silver Wedding brings together two of the beloved Irish author’s most popular novels in one heartwarming collection. In Circle of Friends, Binchy introduces readers to Benny and Eve, childhood friends navigating life, love, and loyalty as they leave their small Irish village for university in Dublin during the 1950s. Amidst the shifting social norms and personal betrayals, their bond is tested in ways neither could have foreseen. Celebrated as one of Binchy’s finest works, it’s a tender exploration of friendship’s endurance in changing times.

Silver Wedding centres on the Doyle family’s twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, a gathering that unearths long-held secrets and unresolved tensions. Desmond and Deirdre Doyle’s carefully maintained public image is quietly unravelled as family members confront hidden hurts, missed opportunities, and unspoken regrets. At the heart of it all is their eldest daughter, Anna, whose quiet strength holds the potential to reshape the family’s future. Both novels showcase Binchy’s trademark warmth, insight, and knack for capturing the intricacies of everyday relationships.

Perfect for readers seeking comforting, character-driven fiction with a gentle dose of drama, this omnibus offers timeless stories about love, resilience, and the ties that bind.
