Reseña del editor

Imogen Langrishe, youngest of the four Langrishe sisters, whose name has long meant money, status and respect to the people of Celbridge, County Kildare, embarks on a reckless love affair. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling 1930s Europe, Aidan Higgins's classic novel depicts the demise of the old order of power in Ireland, as Imogen's loss of inhibition leads her deeper into the sensual yet lonely world of despair and heartbreak. Langrishe Go Down was first published in 1966 and won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize and the Irish Academy of Letters Award, and was made into a film with a screenplay by Harold Pinter.
