  • A Week in Winter by Maeve Binchy ______
    A Week in Winter by Maeve Binchy __________________________________________________________________________________________ About the author: Maeve Binchy was born in Dublin, and went to school at the Holy Child Convent in Killiney. She took a history degree at UCD and taught in various girls' schools, writing travel articles in the long summer holidays. In 1969 she joined the Irish Times and for many years she was based in London writing humorous columns from all over the world. She was the author of five collections of short stories as well as twelve novels including Circle of Friends, The Copper Beech, Tara Road, Evening Class and The Glass Lake. Maeve Binchy died in July 2012 and is survived by her husband, the writer Gordon Snell. Source: Penguin Random House (http://www.penguinrandomhouse.com) About this book: Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland where all the families know one another. When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying mansion set high on the cliffs overlooking the windswept Atlantic Ocean and turn it into a restful place for a holiday by the sea, everyone thinks she is crazy. Helped by Rigger (a bad boy turned good who is handy around the house) and Orla, her niece (a whiz at business), Chicky is finally ready to welcome the first guests to Stone House’s big warm kitchen, log fires, and understated elegant bedrooms. John, the American movie star, thinks he has arrived incognito; Winnie and Lillian are forced into taking a holiday together; Nicola and Henry, husband and wife, have been shaken by seeing too much death practicing medicine; Anders hates his father’s business, but has a real talent for music; Miss Nell Howe, a retired April 2016 schoolteacher, criticizes everything and leaves a day early, much to everyone’s relief; the Walls are disappointed to have won this second-prize holiday in a contest where first prize was Paris; and Freda, the librarian, is afraid of her own psychic visions.

  • Chapters and Verse Permission to Be Happy
    Inquiries: Pamela Wallin, Box 581, Wadena, Saskatchewan, S0A 4J0 | [email protected] | 306-338-9045 Chapters And Verse Permission To Be Happy Maeve Binchy, Ireland’s best loved living author and one of it’s best exports announced her retirement not long ago. At age 60, the author of the blockbuster bestsellers Circle of Friends, The Glass Lake, Evening Class and Tara Road, says she has enough money and fame in her life so the just released Scarlet Feather will be her last book. I’ve been lucky enough to have a few conversations with Maeve, a wonderfully compelling person who talks a blue streak in her terrific accent and every word is a gem. I’ve been thinking a lot about her this summer, about what she told me about herself and about happiness during our last conversation, both on air and off. She was in Canada with her writer husband, Gordon Snell, to promote the publication of Evening Class. How do two writers share a life and a profession, I wondered, in their small village of Dorkey, just 10 miles outside Dublin?: “We both sit at a long table, cats curled up, and work from 7 until half past one or two; then we read to each other what we’ve done in the morning. If you don’t like, we have a rule that you have to be completely honest and truthful. Once, Gordon said to me when I was writing Glass Lake: “I think that character is going to make me throw up, she’s so goody-two-shoes!” Sometimes I’ve had to say about one of his verses that I don’t think it’s funny, which can be very hurtful.” Then Gordon explained that they could carry on this way because “we have this strict rule called Sulking Time.

But such awareness of the past should not conceal the fact that the story of contemporary Irish economic, cultural, literary, and artistic concerns is a compelling and dynamic aspect of the country’s life that is an important topic of study in its own right.

  • A Tribute to Maeve Binchy
    A tribute to Maeve Binchy Her very last novel Queen Maeve and I When my Anglo-Irish friends, Margaret and Andrew, visited me from Devon last summer, they broke the news I had been dreading to hear for years : Maeve had just died, in Dublin, in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the Olympic Games. She had left quietly, and there was I, a reader in grief, looking forward to reading her last novel. But let me tell you how it all started, somewhere in the west of Ireland, so many years ago... Maeve Binchy first appeared in my life while I was a student on the Emerald Isle, collecting information about recent Irish emigration for the thesis I was writing. One of my colleagues at the Sacred Heart School in Westport, Co. Mayo, had suggested I should read Deeply Regretted by..., a play that had just been written by a writer I had never heard of, Maeve Binchy, and for which she was awarded a prize at the Prague Television Festival and two Jacob’s awards in Ireland. I remember being quite moved by the sad story of this Irish immigrant living in London with his English wife and their children. When he dies, prematurely, his English wife finds out he has an Irish wife and children in Ireland... A few years went by, I came back to France and started teaching English. The Internet did not exist then. One day, my sister, who loves Ireland as much as I do, lent me a book entitled C’était Pourtant l’Eté by Maeve Binchy.

  • Reading and Movie List – Ireland
    Reading and Movie List – Ireland Reading and Movies We do carry a portable library on tour, but you may also be interested in the following books. Be sure to check out the blog portion of our website at www.experienceplus.com/blog for additional suggestions and to read reviews. Guidebooks We recommend any of the standard, current guidebooks such as Fodor’s, Frommer’s, Lonely Planet, or Rick Steves. We like the Cadogan Guide series for how they're written and for fun historic anecdotes. Some of these may be out of print, so don't use them for hotels, or restaurants, but they are fine as general guides. For encyclopedic history and art, we recommend the "Blue Guide" series of guidebooks, available for the country. Literature on Ireland J.M. Synge. The Aran Islands,(Penguin 20th Century Classics). Recounts Synge's travels to the Aran Islands in the 1930s. William Trevor (Editor). The Oxford Book of Irish Short Stories. Good traveling companion as it is an easy, yet very enjoyable read. James Joyce. The Dubliners (Modern Library). Thomas Cahill. How the Irish Saved Civilization: The Untold Story of Ireland's Heroic Role from the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe (Hinges of History). Big title and tall order for a short book but still interesting reading if you are interested in the Medieval period of Irish history, how Saint Patrick came to "save Ireland" AND western civilization! Leon Uris. Trinity. A "Michneresque" historical novel about the terrible divide between Catholics and Protestants in Ireland. An interesting way to review your Irish history.

  • 1 Introduction
    Notes 1 Introduction 1. Jo Slade, ‘Waterfall’, The Vigilant One (Galway: Salmon Poetry, 1994), p. 21. 2. Works that address the issue of women’s changing status are cited within the following chapters as specific subjects become pertinent. One can find useful summaries of general changes in the Republic in Ailbhe Smyth, ‘States of Change’, Feminist Review 50 (Summer, 1995): 25–43, and Gemma Hussey, ‘Women and Life in Ireland’, Ireland Today: Anatomy of a Changing State (London: Penguin Books, 1995), pp. 417–44. Important works from the 1980s, like Crane Bag (Special Issue: Images of Irish Women, ed. Christina Nulty, 4:1 (1980); Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, ed., Irish Women: Image and Achievement (Dublin: Arlen House, 1985); Ailbhe Smyth, Women’s Rights In Ireland (Dublin: Irish Council for Civil Liberties, Ward River Press, 1983); Ursula Barry, Lifting the Lid: Handbook of Facts and Information on Ireland (Dublin: Attic Press, 1986); Jenny Beale, Women in Ireland: Voices of Change (Dublin: Gill and Macmillan, 1986); Eileen Evason, Against the Grain: the Contemporary Women’s Movement in Northern Ireland (Dublin: Attic Press, 1991); Ruth Hooley, ed., The Female Line: Northern Irish Women Writers (Belfast: Northern Ireland Women’s Rights Movement, 1985) have achieved nearly historical status because the changes have been so rapid that even works written a decade ago may be dated. One needs to consult a variety of recent sources, including journals devoted to the topic of gender and Irish women: Irish Journal of Feminist Studies and Women’s Studies Review (National University of Ireland, Galway); special issues or regular features in such journals as Women’s Studies International Forum, Feminist Review, Writing Women, Graph, Krino, HU/ The Honest Ulsterman, Journal of Women’s History, Canadian Journal of Irish Studies, Feminist Studies, The Colby Quarterly, Canadian Women’s Studies/Cahiers des femmes.
