From the acclaimed author, a poignant, wrenching, and ultimately hopeful book-equal parts memoir and social history-that follows the author, after a series of tragic losses, to Northern Ireland, where she finds a path toward healing. Rosie Schaap had a solid career as a journalist and a life that looked to others like nonstop fun: all drinking and dining and traveling to beautiful places-and getting paid to write about it. But under the surface she was reeling from the loss of her husband and her mother-who died just one year apart. Caring for them had claimed much of her daily life in her late thirties. Mourning them would take longer.
It wasn't until a reporting trip took her to the Northern Irish countryside that Rosie found a partner to heal with: Glenarm, a quiet seaside village in County Antrim. That first visit made such an impression she returned to make a life. This unlikely place-in a small tough country mainly associated with sectarian strife-gave her a measure of peace that had seemed impossible elsewhere. Weaving personal narrative and social history, The Slow Road North is a moving and wise look at how a community can offer the key to healing. It's a portrait of a complicated place at a pivotal time-through Brexit, a historic school integration, and a pandemic-and a love letter to a village, a culture, and a country.
