Product Description
Synopsis
A delightfully funny and touching picture of a Derry childhood in the 1940s by Tomas O Canainn. Home to Derry evokes with clear affection and some nostalgia the city he knew as a boy. With ironic humour he looks back through the eyes of Sean, one of five children brought up by a young widow in Derry, describing with boyish enthusiasm the highlights of life in the city; the visit of a sophisticated American uncle; the excitement of the annual family holiday in Portstewart; the seduction of the Maiden City by the flamboyant American Forces. These and other episodes of his boyhood are skilfully set against a backdrop of Derry city during this memorable era.
