Synopsis
In 1996, a small Irish press approached Nuala O'Faolain, then a writer for the IRISH TIMES, to publish a collection of her opinion columns. She offered to write an introduction to explain the life experience that had shaped her views. The book became an international bestseller and launched a new life for its author. In ALMOST THERE, she begins her story from the moment her life began to change, in all manner of ways - subtle, radical, predictable and unforeseen. It is a provocative meditation on the 'crucible of middle age'. It is also a story of good fortune chasing out bad. Intelligent, thoughtful, hilarious, fierce, moving, generous, it is full of surprises.Book Details
