Publisher's Summary
Phoebe Forde has a new home and new name and is newly thirty. An Irish transplant and PhD candidate, she’s overeducated and underpaid, but she's finally settling into her new life in Copenhagen. Almost three years into her gender transition, Phoebe has learned to move through the world carefully, savoring small moments of joy. After all, a woman without a past can be anyone she wants. But an unexpected visit from her ex-girlfriend Grace brings back memories of Dublin and the life she thought she’d left behind. Over the course of a weekend, their romance rekindles into something sweet and radically unfamiliar as Grace helps Phoebe navigate the jagged edges of nostalgia and hope.
Written with wit and warmth, Wild Geese is a tale of dislocations and relocations, encounters, and accidents. It's a novel of past lives, messy feelings, and the desire to start afresh.
What the critics say
"Clara Harte is perfect as she narrates this beautifully written timely novel about connections, transitions, and authenticity.... Harte infuses Phoebe with wit, humor, and compassion in this story told over a long weekend.... Listeners will find themselves invested in this novel set against the social and political climates of Ireland and Denmark." (AudioFile)
