A joke:

How do you know when there's a bodhran player at your front door?

The knocking gets faster and faster.

keithmalek

And there's a woman climbing over chairs, taking pictures of every conceivable object at every conceivable angle...so she's obviously American.

keithmalek

He's upset a few along the way too, as does anyone willing to put their head above the fray.

Pickpick

Damning account of how the English government suppressed Ireland's economy for centuries, then victim blamed them when the famine happened and mostly refused to help. Lots of quotes from respected English officials expressing anti-Irish and anti-Catholic bigotry and occasionally coming right out and publicly stating the famine was a fortuitous way to bring down the unsustainable population. Good but long and repetitive.

TheBookHippie I have this on my list to read. 3mo
LitStephanie @TheBookHippie I listened to the audio but would have preferred print to be able to skip ahead on repetitive parts. 3mo
Texreader I read another book about this and it just infuriated me!! I‘ll have to stack this one too. 3mo
