This lovely\u00a0heartsore memoir captures a season on his family farm in Co Longford as he returns from the flim-flam of a modern world to a place where tradition continues to hold sway as it has always done. Between charting man\u2019s 10,000 year history with cattle and rubbing a finger over the charts of his own family bloodlines and relationships, Connell produces a work of considerable honesty and majesty.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thisisbanter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/000f980f-614.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2835\" src=\"http:\/\/thisisbanter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/000f980f-614.jpg\" alt=\"000f980f-614\" width=\"614\" height=\"971\" srcset=\"https:\/\/banter.test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/000f980f-614.jpg 614w, https:\/\/banter.test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/000f980f-614-190x300.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/ruthmcgowan\">Ruth McGowan<\/a><\/strong> is the festival director of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fringefest.com\">Dublin Fringe<\/a>.
