A selection of some of the best writing by Irish women about the Christmas season. The collection celebrates Irish Christmases of the past - from Peig Sayers's on the Great Blasket to Maura Laverty's in Ballinderry to Alice Taylor's in County Cork. The book also focuses on pages of contemporary fiction: Rose Doyle's picture of prosperity and family rifts in "Images", Paticia Scanlan's feisty single women; Maeve Binchy's warmhearted exploration of the human spirit; Jennifer Johnstone's dying heroine in "A Christmas Tree"
