About this listen

26th June,1963; President Kennedy arrives in Dublin. Nearby in Kildare, trouble brews at The Hall as Justin Montague, a handsome teenager, is forbidden by his wealthy father from seeing the charming daughter of a Montague estate worker, the one person who really loves him.

“An audacious one-off. Packed with hilarious incident and pathos." (Catherine Taylor, The Guardian)

“A marvelous achievement. It's a Tubular Bells for the podcast and audiobook generation.” (Stephen Fry)

"Tensions mount relentlessly. As bullets are fired in Dallas real violence erupts in Kildare." (Carol Birch, Times Literary Supplement)

Extraordinary window on Irish sons dramatic life

This book performance dramatically offers us a window into a world few have ever seen through a complete set of sounds in and around the life of a 13 year old son of Irish royalty. His experiences are so thoroughly relayed, listening to him was like watching a movie because visualizing the events within the sounds was so immersive. The life and loves of Justin will fondly live on with me for a long time after listening to this unforgettable story. A sequel is needed!
