| The lost stories of Westmeath (1870s-1920s)
Over 90 years ago, Nora Feehan, a writer, teacher and artist from Tyrrellspass, Co Westmeath, penned a series of short stories and poems capturing the essence of simpler times of people from rural Ireland in the late 1800s early 1900s. Handwritten in old school notebooks, some were written under her name and others under her father's 'Francis O Fiachran'. It was believed she did this hoping to get published.
Nora passed away in 1956 and her quaint and charming stories and poems remained hidden till their recent discovery. They reflect innocence and mischief, deep religious convictions, and the prevalent superstition at the time. Finally, Nora's work is being published with little changed from the original works to keep it authentic to the original writings.
In addition to sharing Nora's short stories and poetry for the first time, the publication also contains old photographs and sketches found amongst Nora's notes and stories, snapshots of her handwritten notes along with other old photos from the area dating back to the early 1900s. |
