Synopsis "Irish Country Cottage (Irish Country Books) "

An Irish Country Cottage is a charming entry in Patrick Taylor's beloved New York Times and internationally bestselling Irish Country series. The New Year brings challenges and changes to the colorful Irish village of Ballybucklebo. The Christmas holidays have barely passed before a fire engulfs the humble thatched cottage housing of Donal Donnally and his family. Although the family escapes the blaze more or less unsinged, Donal, his wife, their three small children, and their beloved dog find themselves with nothing left but the clothes on their back. Good thing Doctors O'Reilly and Laverty are on hand to rally the good people of Ballybucklebo to come to their aid. Rebuilding the cottage won't be quick or easy, but good neighbors from all walks of life will see to it that the Donallys get back on their feet again, no matter what it takes. Meanwhile, matters of procreation occupy the doctors and their patients. Young Barry Laverty and his wife Sue, frustrated in their efforts to start a family, turn to modern medicine for answers. O'Reilly must tread carefully as he advises a married patient on how to avoid another dangerous pregnancy. As a new and tumultuous decade approaches, sectarian division threaten to bring unrest to Ulster, but in Ballybucklebo at least, peace still reigns and neighbors look after neighbors.

Patrick Taylor es un médico y escritor norirlandés, conocido principalmente por su exitosa serie de novelas ambientadas en Irlanda del Norte, centradas en la ficticia aldea de Ballybucklebo. Nació en Bangor, en el condado de Down, y estudió medicina en Queens University Belfast. Más tarde emigró a Canadá, donde trabajó como investigador y profesor de medicina reproductiva. Su carrera médica ha sido prolífica, con más de 170 publicaciones científicas y varios libros de texto médicos.

Taylor comenzó a escribir ficción como una forma de relajarse, y alcanzó el reconocimiento internacional con su novela "An Irish Country Doctor" (2007), la primera de una larga serie que combina humor, drama y una profunda humanidad. Las historias siguen las vidas del Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly y su joven asistente, el Dr. Barry Laverty, mientras atienden a los excéntricos pero entrañables habitantes del pueblo. Su estilo cálido y nostálgico ha conquistado a lectores en todo el mundo.

Además de sus novelas, Taylor también ha escrito cuentos cortos y ensayos. Aunque retirado de la medicina, continúa escribiendo. Su obra ofrece una visión entrañable de la vida rural irlandesa de mediados del siglo XX, llena de compasión, tradición y humor.
