This is a prequel to the Agnes Browne series, and like the other books, it is wonderful in its warmth . Gives a lot of detail about Irish life in Belfast? Dublin?..I forgotten the location, but what is important here is the love and loyalty between family member and the two central characters- two women who have known each other since childhood and who have faced the hardships of lives of poverty together and with hope and laughter. Reminicent of Angela's Ashes, but not nearly as harsh.
