This is Happiness by Niall Williams, 2019.
I read this book over the months of September through November. I really loved this book but I was fortunate that I was able to take my time with it and savor the story over time. The book was lent to me and I knew I had several months before I would see Dick again and return the book. We had been over to Dick and Iris's apartment with the family and Dick saw me perusing the books on his shelf which of course is something I always do at someone's home when I have the chance. He pulled out this book and suggested that I read it.
It really was a fascinating story of life in rural western Ireland during the early 1950's and very well written.
