  1. Dear Brian, please see the comment below from my friend Brid McGrath. She is a librarian extraordinaire, an author of some note herself and usually can't be bothered reading anything writtten after the renaissance! You may take a bow... "Delighted to see that the Home Place has been reissued - I thought it was one of the best books I had read - a real sense of place, humour and community and a telling inversion of theories about emigration".

  2. I'm greatly touched and encouraged by such a lovely comment. And if my posts to my blog are made at the speed of retreating glacier they are heartfelt.
