From Publishers Weekly
Twenty-five tales of uneven quality by such writers as William Trevor and Benedict Kiely, as well as by those less well known, explore the effects of the boggling array of troubles that has formed contemporary Ireland. So perhaps the despair that grips many of the characters in these stories--especially those by younger writers--should come as no surprise. The fictional stet/pk Irishmen and -women in this volume frequently wish for the comfort of religion but cannot find it--rare is the character who can still pray. Poverty is a great source of brutality here, but money permits only the hollow victory of being "miserable in much more comfort," as a character in Val Mulkerns's "Memory and Desire" remarks about a successful entrepreneur who will choose suicide. In the face of so many punishing obstacles and lingering resentments, it is a great personal struggle to forgive--in Edna O'Brien's title story, a mother shaped by a life of harsh necessities learns forgiveness while on holiday with her son and daughter-in-law. Martin is professor of Anglo-Irish literature and drama at University College Dublin.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
