| Echoes of Another Time combines fiction
and memoir in this compelling, evocative collection of stories set in
Donegal. Hazel McIntyre skillfully lets us into a rural world of wakes, weddings,
funerals, dances, missions and much more. This delightful, uplifting and often funny glimpse of life in another time is sure to appeal to the better instincts of all who read it "Hazel McIntyre's writing is firmly based on her memories of
a Donegal childhood. She writes with good humour and a quiet conviction
that what is generous in the human spirit can keep us safe. However, she
does not shirk from unsentimentally describing the destructiveness of
the narrow and unforgiving mind. She remembers a shared time, and shared
experience. She writes with a determination that this will not be forgotten
or denied." |
| Hazel McIntyre will launch her first talking book Echoes of Another Time in April 2002. Hazel's soft Donegal accent and gentle voice bring alive the humanity, spirit and humour of her evocative memoir. |
