Sobre IBD

According to the irrepressible John B Keane, 'When Christmas came to our street it came with a loud laugh and an expansive humour that healed old wounds and lifted the hearts of young and old.'In this collection of Christmas tales, he gives us stories of romance, love, fairies and wise men from the East to entertain and enlighten during the festive season. In these accounts of the heart-warming, the funny, the dramatic and the sad, the traditions and culture of a disappearing rural Irish Christmas are brought to life with a magic that will warm winter days and delight anyone who believes in the spirit of Christmas.
