Light Reading for Short Journeys

Light Reading for Short Journeys is a collection of short memoirs and articles, all published in newspapers and magazines between 1970 and 2000. Each piece is reflective of a personal moment in the writer’s life, whether it is of childhood fishing on the Shannon, the dark days of boarding school or arrival to Dublin as a young man in the 1950s. With humour Patrick transports the reader to the nostalgia of days gone by, a time when things were simpler.
