Kurzbeschreibung
When it comes to spinning a good yarn--creating stories to tug at your heartstrings or make you cry with laughter--the Irish are the best in the business.
Together for the first time, some of Ireland's best-loved writers, as well as up-and-coming new stars, have honed their remarkable talents in aid of a very good cause. The result is Irish Girls About Town, a diverse and memorable collection guaranteed to divert and delight.
Join Cathy Kelly for a madcap road trip across the States. In Maeve Binchey's Carissima, an old friend returns to Ireland from Sicily--with unexpected consequences. An independent woman answers a Lonely Hearts' ad--with surprising results. And discover an unusual method of getting rid of an unwanted wedding ring.
Whether they're raunchy or romantic, provocative or poignant, all the stories in this fabulous new collection are infused with a peculiarly irresistible brand of Irish charm.
So settle down to enjoy stories from some wonderful Irish writers, including Maeve Binchy, Marian Keyes, Cathy Kelly, Colette Caddle, Morag Prunty, Julie Parsons, Joan O'Neill, Gemma O'Connor, Catherine Dunne and Martina Devlin.
£1 from every copy sold will be divided between Barnardo's, the UK's largest children's charity, and the Society of St Vincent de Paul, which works to alleviate the effects of poverty.
