ooh - Wales! The movie "The Englishman who went up a Hill and came down a mountain" is perfectly Welsh. Alas, I don't know any Irish things, really. The Quiet Man? But again, a movie. Clearly I need more Welsh and Irish lit in my repertoire...
I suppose there's always Ulysses, if you could stomach it! ;) I need to try it again one of these days, when I've got lots of time, or deadlines, or both, and an annotated version, probably
This is about Wales but How Green Was My Valley is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'll check it out from the library.
