Nothing is Black (2012)
“‘If ever you think of marrying a girl, take a long hard look at her mother first.’ It was the only solid, explicit warning she had ever given him, (the only one he could remember, anyway). Naturally, he paid no heed to this, except after he was married, when, in the company of either Nuala or her mother, he would often find himself turning the idea over in his mind. It was too late by then. Sometimes he was afraid that Nuala would know what he was thinking. ‘Penny for your thoughts, Kevin,’ she... would say sharply, and he would reply, ‘Oh nothing – nothing at all. I just wondered …’ and then he would garble out the first thing he could think of to distract her. Sometimes she frightened him. He didn’t understand her.
But driving out of Dublin that morning when she was missing, he asked himself if, in all honesty, he regretted marrying her, and he realized that he didn’t. If he had his life to live over, he would have married Nuala again, if only out of a sense of inevitability.MoreLess
