Big, soft-featured Benny, an adored only child, and Eve, the poor, bird-like orphan brought up by nuns, are best friends in the small Irish town of Knockglen. On their first day at University College, Dublin, a fatal road accident brings the pair together with fellow students Nan Mahon and Jack Foley, and new friendships are quickly struck. Jack and Nan introduce Eve and Benny to a life of excitement and sophistication.

But beneath their carefree existence trouble is brewing for the circle of friends. Warmth and laughter are interwoven with sadness in this compassionate and absorbing tale of friends whose lives, over a period of ten years, become entwined in a bizarre triangle.

Customer Reviews

Circle of Friends tells a tale filled with a fusion of eclectic feelings - from sadness and joy through to laughter and tears - as Binchy welcomes her audience into a turbulent world of friendship and love. This story, now available as a CD or MP3 audiobook, centres on a group of university students who get tangled up in a web of bizarre happenings, as real life suddenly becomes all too real for many of them.

The tale focuses on two close friends who leave the small Irish town of Knockglen to attend university in Dublin, where they are brought even closer together as they witness a shocking accident. Benny and Eve soon meet new and exciting people who get jumbled up in each other’s lives - from the handsome Jack Foley to the strong-willed Nan Mahon. Benny and Eve’s lives are transformed from a carefree existence and optimism into a cauldron of betrayal and jealously. Trouble soon erupts in this set of audiobooks on CD and MP3, when the laughter the friends once shared turns to anguish.

Will Benny and Eve remain friends or will their new lives drive them apart?

Kate Binchy reads this collection of 14 CDs, and she truly hooks listeners in with her narrative genius. An essential addition to any Maeve Binchy audiobook collection.
