Irish Hours

By Rosemary Newton

THE IRISH HOURS will appeal to readers who enjoyed DOWNTON ABBEY and Maeve Binchy's novels. Instead of England or Ireland, Chicago in the early 1900's provides the setting for the story that follows the lives and loves of three very opinionated sisters. Although their life styles differ from their Irish and English counterparts, they share a richly detailed time that framed their lives. From before World War One to the beginning of World War Two, the reader is invited to become a member of the Moran and Conniff families as they cope with a changing world. How they deal with each other, their abiding faith in God, and the laughter and tears they share will leave the reader laughing and crying along with them. This story provides a wonderful escape from today's hectic world of constant connection to a time when a telephone was a shared luxury item, and a computer was a mechanical adding machine.
