Tom Phelan discusses The Canal Bridge 2/16/06 February 16
Thursday, 7 pm
Tom Phelan discusses his latest novel, The Canal Bridge, which tells the tale of two Irish stretcher-bearers serving in the British army during the Great War. On one level, the book deals with the lives of young men caught up in the war, and the lovers and families they leave behind. On another level, it questions why Ireland's World War I veterans do not occupy an honored place in the pantheon of Irish heroes.
