The Visitor

Written in the 1940s, The Visitor is a critically acclaimed novella published in 2001, eight years after the death of author Maeve Brennan. Twenty-two-year-old Anastasia King returns to Ireland having spent six years living in Paris with her mother, away from both her father and grandmother. There is no warm welcome to greet her when she arrives in Dublin, just the implacable rage of the grandmother who can’t forgive Anastasia for deserting the family. Anastasia thinks she has come home to stay, but in the eyes of her spiteful grandmother she is nothing more than an unwanted visitor.
