Monday, September 16 through Friday, October 11, 2002. Read by Karl Schmidt.
John McGahern is one of Ireland’s foremost writers, and his new novel is a tribute to the people who make up his country. The story is not new: Joe and Kate Ruttledge move from high pressure jobs in London to a farm near a small Irish village and become involved in the lives of the villagers. The richness of the characters and the attention to details of daily life make this story immensely appealing.
