About this product
Product Information
Named for the ironic coincidence of the Irish baby boom of the 1970s, which peaked nine months to the day after Pope John Paul II's historic visit to Dublin, The Pope's Children is both a celebration and bitingly funny portrait of the first generation of the Celtic Tiger--the beneficiaries of the economic miracle that propelled Ireland from centuries of deprivation into a nation that now enjoys one of the highest living standards in the world.
