This is the tale of Oisin Kelly, beginning with his mother, Annie as she struggles to come to terms with her love for two brothers. Married to Bernard, she is attracted to his brother, the mysterious and much misunderstood, Mick. Annie's strong Catholic faith engenders a deep sense of guilt, at the same time it helps her to cope. The story, set in 1950/60's Ireland, moves forward, sometimes gently, sometimes turbulently, combining pathos and humour. Although Crying Through the Wind is very much Annie's book, the stage is set for Oisin who has a quest of his own.
