Best Friends

A richly resonant, bittersweet story of late life love. With echoes of Olive Kitteridge and Our Souls at Night, Andrew Meehan's compelling novel ponders the question, is it ever too late to find love?

June cleans houses. Ray is a janitor at the public tennis courts in Dun Laoghaire. After lives spent picking up the pieces, he's not romantic material, and she's not even friend material. When it comes to learning how to be with other people at the age of 70 plus, they are unlikely companions, even more unlikely friends Ray looks a bit like Willie Nelson, June looks a bit like Chrissie Hynde. They've never fitted in before and they don't fit in now. They are just regular folk for whom the path towards love has been closed off. As understanding blossoms into friendship, June and Ray find themselves slowly rediscovering the joy that's been missing from their lives for so long. The right person at the right time. June and Ray, this is your moment. 'Normal People for pensioners'
