Title: Very funny, touching, revelatory
Product review: If you want to have some fun reading about and listening to some wonderfully REAL characters, then this is the book for you. If you want to FEEL the generosity and the small-mindedness, the bigotry and the humor of people in small-town Ireland, then you just have to read it. If you want also to get some sense of the smothering impact of the Roman Catholic Church on the people of the town, ditto. It's a genuinely funny, droll, touching book about a group of characters--saints and sinners all--I came to like and care about a lot.
