Many Young Men of Twenty Paperback / softback
by Mr John B. Keane
Paperback / softback
Description
A musical play dealing with emigration and the lack of jobs at home that forced people to leave their native Ireland for England.
It describes the emigrants 'longing for home’ - 'Everyone is lonesome leaving home' - their annual homecomings and their return to jobs and places they disliked - 'back to their night shifts, an' filthy digs ... with their long faces leanin' out o' the carriage windows with the thoughts of what's waitin' over'.
