Blackwood C. Korrigan

Author	Blackwood C.
Title	Korrigan
Description	The wealthy widow Devina Blunt has almost completely lost interest in life since the death of her beloved husband. She spends her days at her Wiltshire home, rarely goes anywhere, visits her husband’s grave and maintains an increasingly formal relationship with her daughter Nadine, who lives in London. Everything changes when Corrigan appears at her door — a charming Irishman in a wheelchair who is collecting money for charity. An unexpectedly close friendship develops between Corrigan and Devina. They talk about poetry, invent charitable projects, drink champagne, and the widow seems to return to life. Yet the happier her mother becomes, the more suspicious Nadine grows of the stranger. Perhaps Corrigan is a skilful manipulator exploiting an elderly woman’s loneliness; perhaps the truth is far more complicated. Blackwood constructs a psychological novel, a black comedy and a story about the saving power of self-deception all at once, continually shifting the boundary between victim and manipulator. The Russian edition includes an afterword by Andrew Solomon.
