If you had to pick five people to sum up your life, who would they be? If you were to raise a glass to each of them, what would you say? And what would you learn about yourself, when all is said and done? This is the story of Maurice Hannigan, an Irish farmer. Over the course of a Saturday night in June, he orders five drinks at the Rainsford House Hotel, and with each he toasts a key person from his life: his adored older brother; his troubled sister-in-law; his daughter of 15 minutes; his son far off in America; and his late, much missed wife.

Niall Buggy brings this book to life
Reviewed: 08-04-21
I rarely prefer an audio version to reading it myself but Niall Buggy makes this story flourish in a way that I couldn’t imagine. He draws out all the nuances of the language, his accent and exactly how a man of that time would reminisce of a time that I couldn’t conjure. Amazing work.
