Who is she? And just give us a glimpse of how she comes to be the fulcrum around which this family pivots. KELLY: I want you to begin where the book begins - with the birth of Saoirse, who becomes the narrator. Welcome to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.ĭONAL RYAN: Thank you, Mary Louise. Well, Donal Ryan joins me now from Limerick, Ireland. We glimpse their commitment to one another. We glimpse their struggles, their knock-the-walls down fights both with outsiders and amongst themselves. Beginning in 1982, the novel chronicles the lives of these four women in County Tipperary, Ireland - Mary, Eileen, Saoirse and Pearl.
Rather, it's about the love that for generations of women in the Aylward family feel for one another. Now, I do not mean in the traditional romantic sense. Donal Ryan's novel "The Queen Of Dirt Island" is a love story.
