  A heart-warming and hilarious novel about life, love, and the weight of all we leave unsaid, Duffy & Son is a quietly moving masterpiece from one of Ireland’s most gifted comic writers. 
  Eugene Duffy is turning 70; his son Jim is turning 40. 
    
  For decades now, they’ve been running the family hardware shop and living in good-natured bachelor harmony. But time is marching on, and with thoughts of old age weighing heavily on his mind, Eugene is growing increasingly concerned about his son’s future. 
    
  He resolves to help in the best way possible: by finding Jim a wife. And he’s not going to let anyone – let alone Jim himself – stand in his way. 
    
  Reminiscent of Fredrik Backman’s bestselling novel A Man Called Ove, Duffy and Son contains a likeable but curmudgeonly main character, wry humour, tremendous heart, as well as a strong sense of community. It is a funny and heartwarming novel which celebrates the messiness of ordinary lives and would make a perfect reading group choice. 
  Damien Owens Duffy & Son, a top, award-winning fiction, is a delightful comedy set in a small, rural town. The humorous and romantic narrative, long-listed for its excellence, explores the intricacies of friendship and the quest for love. 
  For fans of Kristin Hannah (The Great Alone), Michelle Mcdonagh (There's Something I Have to Tell You), Graham Norton (Home Stretch), Liz Nugent (Unravelling Oliver), and Sally Rooney (Beautiful World, Where Are You).
