Summary

"The girl of this story is a clairvoyant. To the other children in the local National School, she is an 'imbissil', a creature of the margins. But she is a lightning-conductor for all that happens in one small Irish country town and through her are channeled all the dreams and desires of its exuberant inhabitants." "The girl's grandmother lives in a beech tree, 'screeching, singing ... fragments constantly spilling out of her memory-box'; Vera McGettrick's fiance blows his head off a week before their wedding; Liz Duffy, the 'apostate' who marries a protestant ('the other crowd'), is denounced as a 'slut, whore and rip'; and the lovelorn ghost of Dockery the draper, is 'still to be seen fishing on winter evenings'."--BOOK JACKET.
