Project Overview
Acclaimed Minnesota author Erin Hart and her husband, Paddy O'Brien, are both celebrating the release of new books. Hart's crime novel, The Book of Killowen, is set in the mysterious Irish Boglands and is based on the real-life discovery of a ninth-century book of Psalms buried in a bog. O'Brien's memoir, The Road from Castlebarnagh, is about growing up in rural Ireland of the 1950s and 60s, learning about music amid the rich and local culture and characters of that time.
