註釋
The stories in this hilarious collection of five short novels are told through a series of fictional letters between a wide range of colorful characters drawn from Irish life in the hill country that divides the counties of Cork and Kerry. Letters of a Love-Hungry Farmer - an account of John Bosco McLane's search for a female companion; Letters of a Matchmaker - a small farmer involved in the delicate business of finding mates for the unattached; Letters of a Successful T.D. - the career and family life of a member of the Irish Parliament climbing the political ladder; Letters of a Parish Priest - Father Martin O'Mora's quest to root out sin among his parishioners; and Letters of a Country Postman - a gossipy postman tries to discover secrets hidden within the envelopes he delivers.
