Reviews
Advance Praise "Murray is a master of the darkly ominous, limning these four seemingly demon-driven lives in granular detail. The novel moves expertly among them, switching from one point of view to another while offering both present circumstances and characters' back stories. Like Murray's Skippy Dies (2010), this is a tour de force, beautifully written (a cat was "so black it looked like a hole in the universe") and perfectly apposite in its tone. It is, in sum, utterly fascinating and unforgettable ." --Michael Cart, Booklist (starred) "No moment or episode is implausible . . . carried by Murray's fine, measured prose and uncanny plotting . . . Irresistible." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred), Advance Praise "A triumph from Irish writer Paul Murray, even better than his 2010 cult story of school life, Skippy Dies . . . Murray excels at the confusions and comedy of young adulthood, and the intensity of teenage friendship. We see that again here . . . The Bee Sting deserves all the praise I am heaping on it. It is generous, immersive, sharp-witted and devastating; the sort of novel that becomes a friend for life." --John Self, Financial Times "This is a big, multilayered book full of secrets and surprises. But not a word is wasted in this unsettling, character-rich, devilishly plotted page-turner." --Barbara Love, Library Journal (starred) "Murray is exploring the way families can always sense the emotional temperature, even if they don't know where the fire is coming from. He is brilliant on fathers and sons, sibling rivalry, grief, self-sabotage and self-denial, as well as the terrible weakness humans have for magical thinking, not least in regard to the climate crisis. He can also create a laugh-out-loud moment . . . You won't read a sadder, truer, funnier novel this year." --Justine Jordan, The Guardian "[ The Bee Sting ] furthers his reputation as a writer of tragicomedy without peer . . . Stories are relayed over successive chapters, often in exquisite detail, and brought to vivid life, each with their own distinctive cadence, along with an amalgam of attendant eccentricities and gripes . . . The Bee Sting is both brilliant entertainment and a penetrating look at the human condition, as heavy with pathos as it is rich with humour. And if 650 pages asks a lot of the reader, in this case it more than delivers." --Nick Duerden, The I (UK) "Trust Paul Murray to make 650 pages feel too short. Seriously . . . Murray unspools the lives of four relatively ordinary people with such brilliant specificity and extravagant empathy, in cool-water prose mixed with his trademark wry darkness, that it's difficult to let them go at the end." --Emily Temple, Literary Hub "Murray is a master of the darkly ominous, limning these four seemingly demon-driven lives in granular detail.

Synopsis
One of The New York Times T op 10 Books of the Year Winner of the An Post Irish Book of the Year, the Nero Gold Prize, and the Nero Book Award for Fiction Shortlisted for the Booker Prize and the Writers' Prize for Fiction Finalist for the Kirkus Prize for Fiction One of The New Yorker 's Essential Reads One of The Washington Post's 10 Best Books of the Year One of TIME's 10 Best Fiction Books of the Year A Dua Lipa x Service95 Book Club Pick From the author of Skippy Dies comes Paul Murray's The Bee Sting , an irresistibly funny, wise, and thought-provoking tour de force about family, fortune, and the struggle to be a good person when the world is falling apart. The Barnes family is in trouble. Dickie's once-lucrative car business is going under--but Dickie is spending his days in the woods, building an apocalypse-proof bunker with a renegade handyman. His wife, Imelda, is selling off her jewelry on eBay and half-heartedly dodging the attention of fast-talking cattle farmer Big Mike, while their teenage daughter, Cass, formerly top of her class, seems determined to binge drink her way through her final exams. As for twelve-year-old PJ, he's on the brink of running away. If you wanted to change this story, how far back would you have to go? To the infamous bee sting that ruined Imelda's wedding day? To the car crash one year before Cass was born? All the way back to Dickie at ten years old, standing in the summer garden with his father, learning how to be a real man? The Bee Sting , Paul Murray's exuberantly entertaining new novel, is a tour de force: a portrait of postcrash Ireland, a tragicomic family saga, and a dazzling story about the struggle to be good at the end of the world.
