The Seanachie 4: Paddy and the Snake and other stories

Gerry McCullough

A fourth collection of twelve humorous Irish short stories featuring Old Seamus, the Seanachie'Ireland’s Own’.A Seanachie is an Irish storyteller and Seamus is a great example of a storyteller. His storytelling covers many eras of recent Irish history - from his own childhood to modern times, and he often manages to get up to great antics in his attempts to help his friends out. The fire is lit and the smell of burning turf fills the air, the Guinness is cold, his pipe is going and Seamus is ready to tell another few yarns!There’s ‘Seamus And The Crafty Beast’ - where Seamus get’s to the bottom of the disappearing hens and proves a little girl’s pet blameless; ‘Paddy and the Snake’ - Paddy loves to play practical jokes, but he’s not so happy when one rebounds on him. In ‘Romance and Father Gillespie’, Seamus discovers a priest’s passion, but promises to keep his secret; and in ‘Daisy in the Country’ being an innocent about country matters is all to the good from the point of view of her boyfriend, Michael!Seamus is as crafty as they come, is not averse to ‘taking the law into his own hands’, can keep a secret for many years and is a willing nemesis to any who wish harm to the innocent. Seamus O'Hare, Donegal’s answer to Robin Hood!
