When All is Said--#14 finished

This is about an old man kind of retelling his life in a series of toasts to people that were important to him.  He is sitting at a bar in a hotel--formerly a house of the rich family in area--giving the toasts in silence I guess to his son.  His son moved to America as an adult and the dad is in Ireland.  A good mix of people in his story and some real feelings positive and negative to him as well.  He had a hatred for the rich family and by end maybe a little softening.  While could see the end coming, not sure it really fit in my opinion.  A good read, author's first book so a lot of credit for this because it is an interesting story.

There are 26 WL for this book on PBS so will go on my shelf to get mailed off at some point if I ever need the credits.
