Synopsis

A vivid study of boyhood, adolescence, and first love in a quiet Irish village. The book follows the son of a national schoolmaster on the north coast of Ireland as temperaments clash and a family tragedy unsettles the ordinary. A wealthy neighboring woman becomes a guiding presence, and the appearance of her niece ushers in romance, setting the stage for a deep, drawn‑out look at growing up and choosing a path amid pressure and possibility.

With a keen eye for character and mood, this novel explores how love, loyalty, and family ties shape a young life. The setting and relationships create a slowly unfolding drama that centers on the personal turning points of a boy coming into his own.




  • Focus on boyhood, family dynamics, and the shift from childhood to adolescence

  • Influence of a wealthy neighbor and the onset of love and longing

  • Atmosphere of a North Irish village and the intimate details of daily life

  • A quiet, introspective tone that centers on inner growth and moral choice



Ideal for readers of classic literary fiction that probes growing pains, friendship, and first love.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
