Donkey's Years: Memories of a Life as Story Told

By Aidan Higgins

Book Overview

Donkey's Years is the first volume of memoirs from one of Ireland's greatest writers, Aidan Higgins. Displaying the wit, sensuality, and highly personal style that made him such a distinct and classic wordsmith, Higgins lays bare his account of his early years growing up Co. Kildare until the time of his family's eventual economic decline. Donkey's Years serves as a literary and sensuous rendering of one man's life and the forces that compelled him towards a life of letters.
