Wasting Time with People?

Wasting Time with People?

by Alice Leahy (Author)

Synopsis

Wasting Time With People? is an insightful and very honest selection of essays, poems, short stories and personal recollections, from a large cross-section of contemporary Ireland. Poets, playwrights, journalists and authors, as well as members of the judiciary, church, medical and political worlds, and people who are homeless: they are all here - helping to start a quiet revolution in Irish society that could change our quality of life for the better.

Royalties from this thought-provoking and inspiring anthology will go to TRUST, a charity which, since 1975, provides a health and social service for those who are homeless.

Contributors include: Robert Ballagh Maeve Binchy Conor Brady Louis Copeland Theo Dorgan Bernard Farrell Gerard Mannix Flynn Aine Lawlor John Lonergan David Norris Terry Prone Feargal Quinn
