Wee Row of Shops and a Bar plus other stories are completely fictional stories with fictional characters. The first eight stories Wee Row of Shops and a Bar give an insight into the characters and personalities and lives of the shopkeepers and in some cases of how they came to be there. Some of the characters hold secrets and heartaches that have burdened them for years. It would be beneficial to the read the stories in the order that they are presented, as some of the stories are linked. A number of the shopkeepers are inspirational women who display strength and courage. There is a concluding story which brings all the shopkeepers together, giving a short synopsis of their lives a year or so on. The remaining short stories are in no way linked and can be read in any order. They are extremely varied and contain many qualities such as, humor, sadness, hope, strength of character and happiness. These are just a few ingredients to capture the interest of the reader and sufficient enough for the reader to care about the outcome of the story. They are imaginative, yet easy to read stories - the perfect antidote, if the reader seeks an escape from their heavy novel.
Autorenporträt
Mary Lewsley is the pen name of Maureen McMullan. She was born in Birmingham to Irish parents. Mary Lewsley was her mother's birth name. Mary's father (Maureen's grandfather} died when Mary was just a babe in arms. So in honour and recognition of her mother and the grandfather she never knew, Maureen wanted her pen name to be Mary Lewsley. Maureen is passionate about Ireland and in 1997, together with her partner, bought a small Irish farm house in the hills of Kerry overlooking the beautiful little town of Kenmare. She feels so delighted and proud to have put life back into a little pocket of the country she loves so much.She spends her time between England and her second home in Ireland, which has influenced many of her stories. Her first book of short stories, Wee Row of Shops and a Bar, was partly inspired by the delightful little town of Kenmare.
