A socially isolated woman of modest means, she teaches piano to a handful of students to pass the day. Her only social activity is tea with the O'Neill family, who secretly dread her weekly visits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n          \u003cp\u003eJudith soon meets wealthy James Madden and fantasises about marrying this lively, debonair man. But Madden sees her in an entirely different light, as a potential investor in a business proposal. On realising that her feelings are not reciprocated, she turns to an old addiction – alcohol. Having confessed her problems to an indifferent priest, she soon loses her faith and binges further. She wonders what place there is for her in a world that so values family ties and faith, both of which she is without.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56156067627352,"sku":"9780007255610","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780007255610_ef6f58d9-3623-4faf-9ee6-2f5125d87fba.jpg?v=1778711427","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lonely-passion-of-judith-hearne","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
