SUMMARY:

"On an overgrown, rundown farm in Ireland in the late 1980s widowed Minnie O'Brien remembers the past: courtship and marriage to craftsman-farmer Peter, the love of her life; their wedding and Dublin honeymoon in 1922; life on the farm; the births of three children, and wahta became of them. Brendan goes off to be a missionary in Africa; Sheila is a nurse at Guy's Hospital; Frankie seeks freedom in the Australian outback.

Between the turf-cutting and roof-laying, ceilidhs and hurling matches of her early married days and the 'modern' age of mains electricity and aeroplanes lie well-worn footpaths of reminiscence down which Minnie rambles contentedly as she waits for her men to come home."
