Christina Reid
Adapted from the author's radio play of the same name.
Through a series of flashbacks a young woman's recollections of her grandfather are revealed. Throughout her childhood in Derry, Andrea, the old man's only granddaughter, is the apple of his eye. He weans her on tales of the First World War when the only glory was for true-blooded Protestants. A moving tale of a lonely old man with only his memories to survive for and of a young girl who wants to experience more from life.
