Description
A haunting and often hilarious warts and all account of growing up in a small rural community near the seaside town of Bray, County Wicklow in the days before television;
of sheep's brains for Sunday dinner and senna pods every Saturday to keep you 'regular';
of the curious goings-on in the winter of 1953/54 during a seven month stay a Dublin hospital;
of the excitement among the young at the arrival of the sensational new music called Rock-n-Roll, and the comically desperate measures taken to keep adolescent hormones in harness.
A wonderfully evocative trip into 1950s Ireland.
Praise for Wicklow Gold:
"I loved this book...The author is to be congratulated. This is a thoroughly enjoyable novel."
