Description This well-crafted novel is one of the few novels in either Irish or English that explores this generation of Irish people, often termed the "silent" or "lost generation" when over a half-a-million people emigrated, primarily to Britain, to work in the post-war economy there - "building England up and tearing it down again." About the Author Dónall Mac Amhlaigh (1926-1989) was one of the most important Irish-language writers of the 20th century. A native of County Galway, he is best known for his novels and short stories concerning the lives of the more than half-a-million Irish people who left Ireland for post-war Britain. Mac Amhlaigh has a unique talent and his chronicles of the Irish emigrant people - sometimes known as the "silent or forgotten generation" - that remarkable generation who made Britain their home in the post-war era.
