3 comments about Irish Reflections.

1. Irish Reflections is an insightful and thoughtful book about one special woman's journey through her life and travels. She writes with humor and love about her travels, her heritage and her experiences. She was trying to get home from Ireland to visit her family in Kentucky on 9/11/01 when she discovered that she was the only traveler on the plane without a partner to share the uncertainty, fear, and horror of the event that would reshape the way we all view our place in the world today. She never lost her sense of humor or took herself too seriously as she coped with each new challenge. Irish Reflections is a good read and a comforting reminder that there is always reason to hope, learn and grow.



2. Refreshing and brutally honest, the arthor captures situations of life that merit raised eyebrows. It made me think of life in a while new light. Invest an afternoon (or two) into this book and you'll see what I mean.

3. Ann Milholland Webb's first book about her adventures in Ireland was The Connemara Bus. It left us asking, "Then what happened?" Her latest offering, Irish Reflections, answers many of those questions with wit and insight as she takes a wry look at her Irish friends and the situations she faced.It is not all skittles and beer. The account of her experiences on 9/11 and the days that followed is compelling and sobering to read. Closing her Irish business was a great disappointment, yet her humor shows through it all.Irish Reflections is an enjoyable read. Perhaps you'll ask after you finish it, "Then what happened?"

1 comments about The English Companion.

1. The English are often a puzzlement to us Yanks, whether we're trying to do business over there or merely reading Dorothy Sayers over here. Smith, a novelist, short story writer, and columnist, has done a pretty good job at explaining various odd English-isms, such as kippers, the jug of ale vs. the straight glass, the six kinds of football, and the tendency to reply to "Thank you," with another "Thank you." He also supplies tidy little mini-essays on quintessential English writers such as Jane Austen, Anthony Burgess, Stephen Spender, and A. J. P. Taylor -- even when they're actually Irish, like George Bernard Shaw. Considering that this book was written seventeen years ago, some of his efforts haven't worn so well, especially the essays on each of the decades of the 20th century and almost every mention of the Labour Party and of Margaret Thatcher. Still, I've always wondered what the Cotswolds were. . . .
