Bookshelf Treasures: Time of the Child

Our next read for Bookshelf Treasures is:

Time of the Child:  Niall Williams, published in 2024, invites you to step into a luminous, lyrical tale set in a world reshaped by silence and solitude.

Time of the Child invites readers to imagine a future where language is nearly forgotten—and one small child's voice might be the key to renewal. With Williams’ signature poetic prose, this novel explores memory, loss, and the enduring power of love and storytelling.

Join us as we reflect on what it means to remember, to hope, and to hold space for the next generation.

Niall Williams was born in Dublin. He is the author of nine novels, including History of the Rain, which was longlisted for the Booker Prize and Four Letters of Love, which will soon be a major motion picture starring Pierce Brosnan, Helena Bonham Carter, and Gabriel Byrne. His most recent novel, This Is Happiness was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards Book of the Year and longlisted for The Walter Scott Prize. He lives in Kiltumper in County Clare, Ireland.
