Description

Don't Tell Anyone is a collection of short stories celebrating life in Ireland in the 1940's and '50's. It includes a story about the girl from the 'Big House' slumming it in London for a year; a lady past her prime finding love on the bus; a young stay-at-home bachelor who gets more than he bargained for on a day trip to the seaside. Then there is the farmer who met the king of the fairies in the lios field - people believed in such things back then. Enjoy the heart-warming tale of how Christmas was transformed from sadness to joy for a family mourning the loss of their daughter to emigration. Follow the adventures of the rural couple who travelled to America in an aeroplane in the autumn of their lives. All this and more can be found between the pages of this delightful book.
