The Cold Eye Of Heaven By Christine Dwyer Hickey
Book Condition:
An intimate story of one man and his hometown as they grow up through the 20th century.
Farley is an elderly Irishman, frail in body but sharp as a tack. Waking in the middle of the night, he finds himself paralyzed on the cold bathroom floor. And so his mind begins to move backwards, taking us with him. As Farley unravels the wrap and weft of his life, he relives the loves, losses and betrayals with the darkly comic wit-of a true Dubliner. For this is also Dublin's story, the city Farley has seen through poverty and prosperity, boom and bust - each the other's constant companion during the seventy-five years.
