A haunting and often hilarious warts and all account of growing up in a small rural community near the seaside town of Bray, County Wicklow in the days before television; of sheep’s brains for Sunday dinner and senna pods every Saturday to keep you ‘regular’; of the curious goings-on in the winter of 1953/54 during a seven month stay a Dublin hospital; of the excitement among the young at the arrival of the sensational new music called Rock-n-Roll, and the comically desperate measures taken to keep adolescent hormones in harness. A wonderfully evocative trip into 1950s Ireland. Praise for Wicklow Gold: I loved this book…The author is to be congratulated. This is a thoroughly enjoyable novel. Anna Cooke, BOOKS IRELAND
