«Bajo el cielo de Dublín» is the contemporary novel by Maeve Binchy, published by Plaza & Janés in paperback (448 pages, in Spanish).
When Frankie is about to be born, her mother desperately seeks someone to care for her. Noel, who doesn't seem the ideal father, sets out to give her a home thanks to a network of friends, neighbors and relatives in Dublin. A meddlesome social worker, convinced that Frankie would be better off in foster care, tries to separate her from that peculiar family.
The translation is by Silvia Pons Pradilla; originally published in English as «Minding Frankie», the novel is part of the «Éxitos» collection.
For readers of contemporary fiction and book clubs, especially those interested in family plots and personal relationships.
Anne Maeve Binchy Snell was an Irish novelist, playwright, short story writer, columnist, and speaker. Her novels were characterised by a sympathetic and often humorous portrayal of small-town life in Ireland, and surprise endings. Her novels, which were translated into 37 languages, sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. Her death at age 73, announced by Vincent Browne on Irish television late on 30 July 2012, was mourned as the death of one of Ireland's best-loved and most recognisable writers.
