The Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne by Brian Moore

The Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne is an unflinching and deeply sympathetic portrait of a woman destroyed by self and circumstance. First published in 1955, it marked Brian Moore as a major figure in English literature (he would go on to be short-listed three times for the Booker Prize) and established him as an astute chronicler of the human soul.

Judith Hearne is an unmarried woman of a certain age who has come down in society. She has few skills and is full of the prejudices and pieties of her genteel Belfast upbringing. But Judith has a secret life. And she is just one heartbreak away from revealing it to the world.

The Statement, No Other Life, Lies Of Silence, and The Lonely Passion Of Judith Hearne are among Brian Moore's nineteen novels. Moore was nominated for the Booker Prize three times. In 1999, he passed away.
