Summary

A series of Tipperary tales within a fictitious hillside community, during the early 20th century.

From Time to Time includes:

  • a tale of a brutal wartime revenge contrasting with the gentleness of a young English girl in the face of local hostilities
  • a tale of a young school rebel rescuing a priest from death
  • a young man’s irreparable grief when his mother drowns while saving her turf in the bog
  • a youth’s entry to manhood on a sunny fair-day in the company of a thieving young temptress from town
  • a memorable clown’s farewell, and a last faction fight
  • the joyful dance of the entire community, when their illicit whiskey-brewer finally makes his return to them from jail
