On the eve of her 80th birthday, Irish politician Mary O'Rourke wrote letters to 20 people, past and present, close and distant, living and deceased. To her beloved brother, Paddy, to the Athlone Fianna F il Women's Group, to Mo Mowlam, to a young couple embracing on a bridge, to a cousin in America. Every letter is heartfelt; every letter offers gratitude for the difference the recipient made to Mary's life. At once universal and deeply personal, this is a book of consideration and appreciation, and it offers an illuminating insight into one of Ireland's best-loved figures.
