Driving with Daisy

Tom Nestor (Author)

A funny, moving and wistful story of a rural Ireland long since passed.1940’s rural Ireland. Every week, young Tom is sent on an errand to the nearby town on foot. An imaginative boy, he convinces himself hes a cowboy and his journey is a foray into the Wild West. On his adventures, he meets a host of weird and wonderful characters, from Ned Wall, the farmer with half a face, to dear Miss Daisy, with her pony and elegant trap – a perfect lady. But times are changing fast, and the old ways are dying out.
