Tipperary

Frank Delaney's book "Tipperary" is an unusual read.  It contains stories told by three different people of Ireland in the late 19th Century and early 20th century; a time of conflict in that nation's history.  The stories told from the perspective of the three people is written by a narrator who analyses their stories as they are presented.  The three stories all revolve around an unrequited love, and the rebuilding of Tipperary Castle.  I will leave it to you, dear reader, to discover how it all turns out.

In closing, I must admit, the Irish are great story tellers.
