Beautifully Produced and hauntingly illustrated, this unknown work
by Iris Murdoh (1918-1999) is something very special indeed.
Previously unpublished but for an excerpt in a 1950s anthology,
this is a bittersweet, haunting story. Yvonne, an ordinary, bold
young Irish woman, believes that there's more to life than marriage
to Sam, the dutiful Jewish lad who is courting her. Set in Dublin,
against the vividly recognizable backdrop of the author's native
city in the 1950s, Something Special is written with a wry humor
and penetrating insight that evokes the psychological tension of
James Joyce's "The Dead".
Gorgeously illustrated with line drawings by the renowned
American artist Michael McCurdy, Something Special is a perfect
gift for all occasions, but especially for anyone in love.
