However, as he grows older, his wife and daughters must confront how their own lives have been irrevocably shaped by this complicated and contradictory man.

An intimate story of a family living on the Irish border, under the thumb of a former soldier turned tyrant in his own home.

Written and abridged by John McGahern.
