Belfast, 2007. Eighty-eight-year-old Michael Doherty lies in an open coffin, listening to those who have come to pay their respects. However, he''s not yet ready to pass over. His granddaughter is the reason. Thirty-something Sarah has inexplicably abandoned her plans to settle in Spain. She is scarred by the Sandstone City and Michael doesn''t understand why - yet it is a city he knows only too well, populated with his own ghosts. The Sandstone City is a novel that questions what happens when we lose ourselves, when we lose those we love and which fragments of the self are worth holding onto.

A study of Lope's religious plays and their reflection of the theocentric world of seventeenth-century Spain.
