About this book

Moll is a hilarious and highly successful comedy about life in an Irish country presbytery.'When a presbytery gets a new housekeeper it becomes like a country that gets a change of government, or like a family that gets a new stepmother'. Moll Kettle would work for no less than a canon for, in her own words, 'Tis hard to come back to the plain black and white when one is used to the purple'. John B. Keane was one of Ireland's most prolific and respected literary figures. He was born in 1928 in Listowel, County Kerry and it was here that he spent his literary career, running a pub which provided him with inspiration for his characters and ideas. His first play, 'Sive', was presented by the Listowel Drama Group and won the All-Ireland Drama Festival in 1959. It was followed by another success, 'Sharon's Grave', in 1960. 'The Field' (1965) and 'Big Maggie' (1969), are widely regarded as classics of the modern Irish stage and jewels in a crown which includes such popular hits as 'Many Young Men of Twenty', 'The Man from Clare', 'Moll', 'The Chastitute' and 'The Year of the Hiker'. His large canon of plays have been seen abroad in cities as far afield as Moscow and Los Angeles. 'Big Maggie' ran on Broadway for over two months in 1982 and 'The Field' was adapted into an Oscar-winning Hollywood film, starring Brenda Fricker and Richard Harris, in 1991.
