Along the Coast Road
Along the Coast Road | D. G. Craig
1 post | 1 to read
Have you ever wanted to open a coffee shop? Well, Gerry never expected the magic it would bring!
Following his father's death, Gerry -- at just twenty-one years of age -- finds himself alone and in charge of the family farm in mid 1970's Ireland.
Knowing about nothing other than livestock and the sleepy village of Ballyduffy, Gerry soon uncovers his late father's dream, a discovery that will set in motion a chain of unforeseeable events leading to a new business, a most peculiar blessing by the Pope, and an unexpected romance.
However, Gerry must decide whether his father’s stoic and stubborn ways have truly passed on to him, and, in fulfilling his father’s dream, has Gerry forgotten whether he has any of his own?

A bit late today, but this is my top book for #12BooksOf2023 for #July

A little known book that I have had to add to the database to even post it here. Published in April a moving story set in rural 1970‘s Ireland. Gerry has to take on the family farm following his father‘s death and his brother going to America. I really loved the simplicity but developments for Gerry in this story. Quite emotive.

It needs more publicity.
