Bibeanna is a fascinating bilingual book in which twenty-five women
from the Dingle Gaeltacht chart Ireland’s progress from a poor rural
society to the modern, affluent society it is today. They look back on
their lives and the changes they have witnessed since their childhood
and recall in vivid, poetic and loving detail an Ireland that is no more.
Above all, through the stories in Bibeanna, we see the strength of these
women, and their acceptance of what life brings. And their strongest
weapon remains their natural exuberance and sense of joy.‘ That,’ they
say, ‘is life. You have to take what life sends you.’
