Are You Somebody?: The Accidental Memoir of a Dublin Woman by O'Faolain, Nuala

Format: Trade Paperback

Published by Holt Paperbacks, 1999

One of nine children born into a penniless North Dublin family, Nuala O'Faolain was saved from a harrowing childhood by her love of books and reading. Though she ultimately became one of Ireland's best-known columnists, her professional success did little to ease her loneliness and longing for a deep connection to the world. Are You Somebody? distills her experiences into a wisdom that can only come from an obstinate refusal to shrink from life.
