Home Before Night
A tour de force of prose which captures all the poetry and drama of a child's experience of Dublin in the 30s and 40s. The author's crystal-clear recollections, recounted with sparkling humor and immediacy, and the vast array of colorful characters, combine to create an engaging and enthralling read.
