Description: Mary Lavin was born in East Walpole, MA and went to live in Ireland when she was ten years old. The incredible stories in this book are influenced by early childhood in the US but mostly related to her beloved Ireland. V. S. Pritchett observed about her writing of stories: 'here stories are not the quick glances we get in other writers, they are long gazes into the hearts of her people.' A beautiful book, First American Edition, 1977, in excellent condition.
