Three lads on skateboards. One homeless man. And a bag of Supermac's chips that changes everything.
When Daniel, David and Mark first encounter Ted White sitting on a marble ledge in Arundel Square, they see exactly what everyone else sees. A man down on his luck with nowhere to be.
But Ted White is not what he appears. He is funny, wise, and quietly extraordinary. And the story of how he ended up on that ledge is one none of them will ever forget.
Important People is a gloriously funny and deeply moving story about friendship, second chances, and the unlikely people who teach us what actually matters. Set in the heart of Waterford city, it is a book for anyone who has ever walked past someone and wondered about their story.
Some stories begin with a bag of chips.
Ted White's is one of those stories.
