Produktinformationen "My Village My World"
'This is a book that never palls or drags. It is boisterous and ribald and I am tempted to say that it is by far the funniest book I have ever read. It is also an accurate and revealing history of rural Ireland half a century ago and more. John M. Feehan writes beautifully throughout. I love this book.' From the Foreward by John B. Keane My Village - My World is a fascinating account of the lives of ordinary people in the countryside of half a century ago. It depicts a way of life that took thousands of years to evolve and mature and was destroyed in a single generation. Although the people of John M. Feehan's village were never famous and might now be described as 'unskilled', this would be a false description. They were all highly skilled, whether in making coffins, droving cattle or tending horses. The world described with such vivacity in this lively memoir was not idyllic. There were sinners as well as saints, all ordinary mortals. The village of John M. Feehan was unique and lives on in these pages.
