A richly recounted memoir of growing up in an Irish farming community in the 1940s
Told in a series of snapshots, A House for Two Pounds is filled with wit, warmth and joy. It follows the life of Kathleen Iggulden, and is a quietly powerful account of life on Brookdale farm. Though it is very personal, it tells the wider story of a vanished Ireland; an era of innocence, community and pure elbow grease.
