“A delightful story of Irish village life, written with intimate knowledge, and a very vivid pen, resulting in a charming mosaic of small happenings, none of them made magically interesting by the craft of the author. If this is a first book, as it appears to be, it is a grateful duty to welcome the writer to the realms of fiction, and to hope that she will add many more such works to her record.... This is an entirely charming book, full of humour, and affording a particularly interesting picture of life in rural Ireland.” --_Daily Graphic._
