Description and Table of Contents

Description

Alight with a young man's idealism in "Midsummer Night Madness" (stories about the Troubles), or turning his talents to the Irish character and Catholicism in "A Purse of Coppers" and "Theresa", Sean O'Faolain's prose is by turns lyrical, exuberant and austere.
