Mary, Mary
A humorous tale about a poor Irish charwoman living in the slums of Dublin, and her innocent teenage daughter, Mary Makebelieve, whose first forays into courtship and romance, and their desire to escape from drudgery — provide us with a charming picture of youth’s enthusiasm and a mother’s devotion, amidst Dublin’s many parks and shops. The chapters are filled with James Stephens’ witty Irish observations on life, love, ignorance, the frustrations of the poor and the wishful thinking that sustains them . . . . told as jauntily as only a few authors can equal.
