Destiny of Dreams Book
The richness of daily life in rural County Kerry in the 1950s is evoked in exquisite detail. Bowler captures well the acute sensitivities of his narrator, an adolescent whose failed attempt, at age ten, to run away with tinkers in a horse-drawn caravan does little to staunch his melancholy and his sense of longing for life beyond the emigration-bled village of Cahirciveen. Mr. Bowler is a dab hand when it comes to the turn of a phrase, rendering with precision what has been said, just so, while at the same time evoking all that goes without saying."" - NY Times. ""With a lyrical voice recreates adult memories of a magical childhood."" - Publishers Weekly.Read More
