George Gilmore to Sighle Humphreys, 28 Mar 1984:
‘… as for what ‘we’ were fighting for – no two people, I am sure, had exactly the same view of life.
… Sorry for all this rambling. I am really very ill and want only quietness. Glad to hear that you are still a little bit alive’.

This Boy’s Heart is particularly wonderful. It is so evocative - and real - the brutality of some teachers stayed with me after reading it.
If you're thinking of books for Christmas, you might wish to consider ordering one of these. No pressure. Jus' sayin'. #Christmas #Books #BlackFriday #ShopLocal #BuyIrish
