The Finest Stories of Sean O'Faolain
Seán O'Faoláin - 1957
The stories in this volume run the gamut of his thirty years of writing, from his earlier romantic pieces to his later more satiric ones. At the heart of his writing is O'Faolain's great love for Ireland, its people and traditions seen in both their tragic and comic aspects. Yet, written with an enormous compassion and incisive humor, the stories of Sean O'Faolain speak not only for the Irish, but for all humanity through all time.
