'If I could go back to being sixteen again, I'd do things differently.'
'Everyone over the age of forty feels like that, you total gom,'
says my best friend Lizzie Magee.
When she was young Mary Rattigan wanted to fly. She was going to
take off like an angel from heaven and leave the muck and madness of troubled
Northern Ireland behind. Nothing but the Land of Happy Ever After would do for
her.
But as a Catholic girl with a B.I.T.C.H. for a Mammy and a silent Daddy, things
did not go as she and Lizzie Magee had planned.
Now, five children, twenty-five years, an end to the bombs and bullets, enough
whiskey to sink a ship and endless wakes and sandwich teas
later, Mary's alone. She's learned plenty of hard lessons and missed a hundred
steps towards the life she'd always hoped for.
Will she finally find the courage to ask for the love she deserves? Or is it
too late?
