âMy wooing began in passion, was defined by violence and circumscribed by land; all these elements molded my soul.â So writes Charles OâBrien, the unforgettable hero of bestselling author Frank Delaneyâs extraordinary novelâa sweeping epic of obsession, profound devotion, and compelling history involving a turbulent era that would shape modern Ireland.Â
Born into a respected Irish-Anglo family in 1860, Charles loves his native land and its long-suffering but irrepressible people. As a healer, he travels the countryside dispensing traditional cures while soaking up stories and legends of bygone timesâand witnessing the painful, often violent birth of land-reform measures destined to lead to Irish independence.
At the age of forty, summoned to Paris to treat his dying countrymanâthe infamous Oscar WildeâCharles experiences the fateful moment of his life. In a chance encounter with a beautiful and determined young Englishwoman, eighteen-year-old April Burke, he is instantly and passionately smittenâbut callously rejected. Vowing to improve himself, Charles returns to Ireland, where he undertakes the preservation of the great and abandoned estate of Tipperary, in whose shadow he has lived his whole lifeâand which, he discovers, may belong to April and her father.
As Charles pursues his obsession, he writes the âHistoryâ of his own life and country. While doing so, he meets the great figures of the day, including Charles Parnell, William Butler Yeats, and George Bernard Shaw. And he also falls victim to less well-known charactersâwho prove far more dangerous. Tipperary also features a second âhistorian:â a present-day commentator, a retired and obscure history teacher who suddenly discovers that he has much at stake in the telling of Charlesâs story.
In this gloriously absorbing and utterly satisfying novel, a manâ s passion for the woman he loves is twinned with his countryâs emergence as a nation. With storytelling as sweeping and dramatic as the land itself, myth, fact, and fiction are all woven together with the power of the great nineteenth-century novelists. Tipperary once again proves Frank Delaneyâs unrivaled mastery at bringing Irish history to life.
Praise for Tipperary
âThe narrative moves swiftly and surely. . . . A sort of Irish Gone With the Wind, marked by sly humor, historical awareness and plenty of staying power.ââKirkus Reviews
âAnother meticulously researched journeyâĻDelaneyâs careful scholarship and compelling storytelling bring it uniquely alive. Highly recommended.ââLibrary Journal (starred)
