<br /><br />This is a delightful little
book. It's written in an approacable conversational way which really
helps create an atmosphere of Irish life. Some lovely poems are spread
throughout too that echo themes from the main text. It's a format that
really works.<br /><br /><div style="margin-bottom:.5em;">

This is an enchanting little book that engaged me from the beginning.
The author describes places and events growing up in Ireland with
effortless and musical prose. She has her own poetry too, which is
interspersed seamlessly into the text, that echoes the many themes she
touches on. Overall, quite an enjoyable read and a charming memoir on
Irish life and culture.
