Tea and Talk, Paperback / softback Book

Tea and Talk Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Relax with Alice, sit and chat over a cup of tea, as she invites you into her life. See an old press overflowing with the linen collection of two generations, the oil lamps and clocks inherited and collected over many years, and the books of people who once lived here.

Alice tells you of the sad loss of her beautiful dogs Kate and Lolly, friends of the heart, and takes you around her village to meet her neighbours, join a meitheal to plant trees, and visit the fairy doors in the nearby wood. But Alice’s home and community are not a perfect place: hear about the split in the local GAA club, blocked off rights of way, the donations of the local canine population on the footpaths!

Visit a restored famine graveyard and hear about the landlords who once owned this village and the landmarks they left on the landscape and the people.

This is life in a small Irish village in 2016, one hundred years after the Rising. This Bestselling book is coming in paperback edition.
