Produktinformationen zu „Farewell Happy Fields (ePub)“

Among the most elusive of Norah Hoult's works, Farewell Happy Fields was published in 1948 and, like many of her books, was promptly banned in Ireland. A dark comedy full of acerbic wit, it brings searing insight into a lost post-war generation of lower-middle-class women and men as they deal with shame, financial insecurity and emotional poverty.

Back in print for the first time in decades, New Island is delighted to bring this startling modern Irish classic to a new generation of readers.
