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. Scarce signed. Covers and photos by Emma Byrne (illustrateur). Signed by Author(s).…

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. SIGNED, DATED AND INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR, IN BLACK PEN ON FFEP 'To MonaIn celebration of all the Nanas!

Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of covers and spine, illustrated covers, no jacket as issued, very slight lean, no price, no other inscriptions, internally clean and tight, overall a vg+ copy. 240pp, lavishly illustrated. The Irish nana (grandmother), is a repository of family history, memory and lore. Sometimes, like the Italian nonna, she is also a 'walking cookbook', carrying the old knowledge of how things were best done. Alice's own grandmothers, Nana Taylor and Nana Ballyduane, were the first generation after the Great Famine, born in the 1860s. These women taught their families the Irish traditions and habits of homemaking that survived for centuries, and are now almost gone. Now Alice herself is a nana too, and this book takes us through three generations and almost a century and a half. She explores the old and the new, the 'then' and 'now', the nana of yesteryear and of today, with her characteristic empathy and love. Scarce signed.
