AOH Brother Kevin Byrne of Somerset 1, has written a book of short stories - "Clonard". With more than 30,000 copies sold, the book is in high demand. Copies of the book are available through the author's website.
From the book's website:
"Clonard is a look at a working class community as told through the eyes of a retired Catholic priest sharing the lives of his parishioners. Set in war torn West Belfast in the 1960s and 70s, Clonard is loosely based on the author's real life experiences. Sometimes hilarious and sometimes sad, it is blue collar reality at its best. The heartfelt vignettes involve an eclectic bunch of characters of years gone by and are portrayed with humor and affection."
More information and links to purchase the book are available at: http://www.kevinbyrne.biz. If you purchase the book, please use the Contact Us link on their website to let them know that you are an AOH member. The author will make a donation back to the AOH for each book sold. |
