5.0 out of 5 stars A quick read, with a good deal of joy to bestow, April 7, 2004
This review is from: Before the Devil Knows You're Dead: Irish Blessings, Toasts and Curses (Paperback)
This wonderful little book is a collection of authentic Irish blessings, toasts and curses, collected in Ireland, by an Irish author, for an Irish audience. I just wanted to make clear that this isn't fond American memories of the "auld sod," but is real life Irish culture. These little snippets of Irishness are a joy to read, and range from the sacred, through the noble, to the humorous, and out to the coarse (see the final section!). As a quick read, with a good deal of joy to bestow, this book has no peer. I highly recommend this book!
