Sightlines - Beyond the Beyond in Ireland (Hardcover)

It is the 1960s, and Ireland is hoping to join what will later
become the European Union. The government has devised a plan to
stem emigration and save the Irish language by supporting small
factories in the Gaeltacht, traditional Irish-speaking villages in
remote western areas. But is the plan working? With her signature
humor and charm, Eileen Kane transports the reader to County
Donegal with a detailed account of rural Irish life during this
period of rapid change. This is a story about people living beyond
the margins of maps, boundaries, language groups, and government
departments - people bound by borders that have little or no
correspondence to their own cultural, economic, and historical
margins. Ultimately, it is a story about life on the edges, and the
places and people who fall outside them.
