Title: A Son Called Gabriel
Description: "Set in the hills of Northern Ireland in the 1960s and 70s, A Son Called Gabriel is a coming of age novel." "Gabriel Harkin, the eldest of four children in a working-class family, struggles through a loving yet often brutal childhood. It's a turbulent time in Ulster, and in the staunchly Catholic community to which Gabriel belongs, the strict code for belief and behavior is clear. As Gabriel begins to suspect that he's not like other boys, he tries desperately to lock away his feelings, and his fears. But secrets have a way of being discovered, and Gabriel learns that his might not be the only ones in the Harkin family."--BOOK JACKET.
