Paperback. Condition: Fair. In 'Islanders' Peadar O'Donnell reveals life among the fishing folk in the little islands off the west coast of Ireland. It is a convincing and haunting story of epic simplicity in which a whole family comes to life. Under the author's spell we are taken into their world of poverty, hunger, laughter, and, above all, hope. Peadar O'Donnell trained as a school teacher in Dublin. He went on full time active service with the I. R. A. in the Winter of 1920. As a brigade O/C he opposed the Treaty, and was one of the members of the I. R. A. executive in the period of the armed defence of the Republic against the Treaty forces. He was taken prisoner in the fall of The Four Courts and spent almost two years in jail. 'I spent a good few months in continuous solitary confinement in 1923. I found it stimulating. I did encourage my mind, however, to steal out the window, to boats, islands, scenes I like'. He later assembled his prison vision in 'Islanders'. Owner's Name inside. Cover tanned at edges; a little dogeared; small water stain bottom lat few pages (text not affected). 124 pages.…

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
