On the writing desk
First draft
In 1890s Galway, a practical young cataloguer is sent to help sort a private library in a decaying house on the edge of the city. There she finds that the heir wants the books sold, the house wants to be forgotten, and the man she is forced to work beside has his own reasons for resisting both change and attachment.
