5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting, September 6, 2007
This review is from: The Teapots Are Out and Other Eccentric Tales from Ireland (Paperback)
John B. Keane is my favorite literary discovery of the last 15 years. He's witty, compassionate and insightful. The stories in this volume run the gamut from heartbreaking and tragic to fully romantic and full of giggles.

Keane has a deceptively simple style that develops character without flashy turns of phrase, and reveals the secret corners of the human heart. But when he opens that door, you're astounded by what he shows you not only in the hearts of others, but in your own.

Don't miss a chance to read anything of his you can lay your hands on.

I enjoyed this book. It's not a collection of tales of the the "important," but of your neighbors and people down the road. If you lived in Ireland. Well told stories of people that you have met or might meet today. Warm, sad and funny a great book for a weekend read.

There is a story contained within this book titled Fred Rimble. I would have bought the book just to have that wonderfully witty story, but enjoyed the entire book.
