Book Description
Sprawling and intimate, stark and fantastical, Galore is a novel about the power of stories to shape and sustain us. This is Michael Crummey’s most ambitious and accomplished work to date. An intricate family saga and love story spanning two centuries, Galore is a portrait of the improbable medieval world that was rural Newfoundland, a place almost too harrowing and extravagant to be real. Remote and isolated, exposed to savage extremes of climate and fate, the people of Paradise Deep persist in a realm where the line between the everyday and the otherworldly is impossible to distinguish. Propelled by the disputes and alliances, grievances and trade-offs that bind the Sellers and Devine families through generations, Galore is alive with singular characters, and an uncommon insight into the complexities of human nature.

In this uproariously funny story, the setting is the enchanting Hebridean islands of Great Todday and Little Todday, in which the inhabitants are more concerned with the replenishment of their supplies of whisky than with the defence of the Islands against the enemy. All our old friends - Sergeant-Major Odd and his charming Peggy (whom he successfully carries off), Captain Waggett, Father Macalister, the Macroons and the MacRuries - are here again, and their activities in connection with the wreck of the S.S. Cabinet Minister, loaded to the gunwales with whisky for America, give full scope to Compton Mackenzie's hilarious wit.
