At 45, Liam O'Connor's in the family way. A man befuddled by women and afraid of commitment, he seems an unlikely candidate for his first real relationship, and even more unlikely as a first-time father-but here he is. You might say it's Liam's rebirth moment, but he's breech. Falls the Apple-The Family O'Connor is a twenty-year saga, a wild ride punctuated by Liam's relationship with that baby aptly named Maeve ("she who intoxicates" or "she who rules"), as she grows into a precocious, headstrong young woman who stands toe to toe with her father and gives as good as she gets.
But Falls the Apple is far more than just a father-daughter tale. It plumbs the depths of family identity, including the tug and pull of biological versus chosen relationships, and the intersection of business and friendship in day-to-day life and in the crises that inevitably interrupt our lives.
