About this product

Product Information

In the course of conversation, she learns how her birthplace is viewed and remembered by a host of Dubliners from broadcasters to shop workers recalling showband days; by the city s writers, actors, historians and, most tellingly, her ordinary folk who, with wit and fondness, share far from ordinary reminiscences, Here are images of the clip-clop of Guinness drays, of thronged and opulent Corpus Christi processions, of penitential but sociable rounds of The Seven Churches on Holy Thursdays, of Jewish tailoring houses, of the gentle self-sufficiency of the Dublin Protestant and of an intimate, impenetrable lingo spoken and understood only by those in the city's retail trade. In words and pictures, we learn about the closure of the fabled Frawley's of Thomas Street a hugely emotional event for the staff and its heartbroken customers about the ballroom of romance in the Broadway Cafe in O'Connell Street, about the blowing up of Nelson's Pillar and the devastating fire in Power's Distillery, about Moore Street then and now, about the spread of the city into the 'new Dublins' of Finglas, Crumlin and beyond.

I think this item (which was one of four bought at the same time as part of a special offer) had to be re-despatched. I told them it didn't arrive with the other books so they made arrangements to get it to me ASAP. They said it would be despatched within 48 hours and it was despatched within 24. I had it on my doorstep in 3 days, in very good condition as described. Very happy with the price and the service, highly recommended seller. Very professional.
