Short Stories:
The Pedler's Revenge
This valuable collection displays O'Flaherty's amazing range from a
love idyll between a wild drake and a domestic duck to the unspeakable
comedy of the appalling Patsa, from the burning of young love in that
splendid story "The Caress", to the old love
"Lovers." Benedict Kiely
'This collection is a gallery of human emotions, embracing a
clutch of huge eccentrics, sweet and sour remembrances of distant youth
and vivid portraits of rural Ireland, a worthy representation of an
unfliching lyric writer. The Sunday Times
