Thank you, Gransnet, I enjoyed reading the book.
Holding turned out to be unexpectedly gentle - gently told, in a gentle, almost fragile setting.
The small village life described beautifully, the characters believable. In the telling of the tale, one had a sense of slight tongue in cheek humour, but at the same time one felt for some of the chatacters with a life not quite lived - I.e. the tragic characters - Lizzie Meanie and the Ross sisters.
Although gentle, the tale is well paced and keeps one well engaged throughout.
PJ is likeable and makes one feel sympathetic towards him.
The book could easily be a start of many more tales of the village. I can almost visualise a tv series in that setting, with more characters developed.
Mr Norton, are there plans for more Duneen tales?
Or, having told the tale, have you now moved on to other projects?
If so what? I'd be interested in reading more from Mr Norton.
Thank you.
