«Chestnut Street» is Maeve Binchy's collection of slice-of-life stories, published by Orion in paperback (400 pages, in English).
The book looks at the everyday lives of the residents of Chestnut Street: a window cleaner who protects his son, an aunt who turns everything upside down, the gossip that guides a fortune teller, and a daughter who discovers too much about her mother.
The book, published in 2014, is set in Dublin and takes place just around the corner from St. Jarlath's Crescent, a familiar setting for readers of Minding Frankie.
For readers of Irish fiction and slice-of-life stories, particularly those who follow the work of Maeve Binchy.
Anne Maeve Binchy Snell was an Irish novelist, playwright, short story writer, columnist, and speaker. Her novels were characterised by a sympathetic and often humorous portrayal of small-town life in Ireland, and surprise endings. Her novels, which were translated into 37 languages, sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. Her death at age 73, announced by Vincent Browne on Irish television late on 30 July 2012, was mourned as the death of one of Ireland's best-loved and most recognisable writers.
