Produktbeschreibung

Mary, Mary
A humorous tale about a poor Irish charwoman living in the slums of Dublin, and her innocent teenage daughter, Mary Makebelieve, whose first forays into courtship and romance, and their desire to escape from drudgery -- provide us with a charming picture of youth's enthusiasm and a mother's devotion, amidst Dublin's many parks and shops. The chapters are filled with James Stephens' witty Irish observations on life, love, ignorance, the frustrations of the poor and the wishful thinking that sustains them . . . . told as jauntily as only a few authors can equal.
Michele Fry, Soloist

Autorenporträt

James Stephens (1880-1950) was an Irish writer, best remembered for his retellings of Irish myths and folklore. His most celebrated work is the 1920 collection 'Irish Fairy Tales'. He was good friends with fellow Irish author James Joyce, and almost assisted him in completing his final work, 'Finnegans Wake' (1939).
