O Now!: From the award-winning, internationally bestselling author of FOUR LETTERS OF LOVE and THIS IS HAPPINESS
Autor Niall Williamsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 aug 2026
A wise, tender, life-affirming return to the beloved town of Faha by the award-winning master of Irish literature
This is the why of us.
October in the parish of Faha, County Clare - the beginning of the season of spirits.
Four nights a week, Bat Considine calls on his neighbour Mossie Crowe; a beloved widower known to all in the townland of Faha as Ganga. They sit by the fire and, as Bat reads the newspaper aloud, wait to see which of them will die first.
But this week, Bat will make a discovery that changes this routine forever. In the coming days, Ganga's small community will gather, and his family travel home from far away; to celebrate a quiet life, in all its miracles.
Funny, beautiful, transcendent and wise, O Now! leads readers back down the road that leads to Faha - and explores what it means to live a meaningful life, and what it means to leave it behind.

Praise for Niall Williams: 'I am utterly obsessed with Niall Williams
A beautiful writer
What makes this so compelling and enjoyable is Williams's transparent love of his characters and delight in his setting
Written with a turn of phrase that makes the reader want to underline something on every page
When I cried, it was because, with his careful and compassionate depictions of people, place and time, Williams reminds us of the humanity in all, of the vitality of a community that comes together, and of the power in revealing our vulnerabilities to others
A love letter to literature and storytelling
Dazzling ... Paragraph after paragraph begs you to stop and reread it, to relish the lilt of it in your inner ear
Deeply allusive, infectiously hopeful
