Happy St. Patrick's Day.

I have some things in common with Judith Hearne: I am "on the wrong side of 40", unmarried, have no children, and no major accomplishments really to speak of. So I have a lot of sympathy with her as a character, even when she's being annoying by self-medicating her depression with alcohol, and latching on to the vulgar rapist James Madden who's only courting her for the money he thinks she might have tucked away (whether he's courting her as only a prospective business partner as he professes or as a wife as well, it's hard to say).
