Tension is also ratcheting up at home. Pat Dumay is a Catholic and an Irish patriot. His relentlessly pious mother pursues her own private war with his stepfather, a man sunk in religious speculation and drink. Meanwhile Pat's Protestant soldier cousin, Andrew Chase-White, puzzles out his complex emotions about Ireland and the girl he loves. Weaving between them moves Millie Kinnard: fast, feminist, and only just respectable.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nOf all the novelists that have made their bow since the war she seems to me to be the most remarkable...behind her books one feels a power of intellect quite exceptional in a novelist ―\u003cbr\u003e\nSunday Times\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is a comedy with that touch of ferocity about it which makes for excitement -- Elizabeth Jane Howard\u003cbr\u003e\n      From the Inside Flap      \u003cbr\u003e\nIntroduction by Declan Kiberd\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe scene is Dublin in 1916. As rebellion looms, tension mounts in the sombre, rain-soaked Dublin streets. A single Anglo-Irish family provides the diverse characters: Pat Dumay, a Catholic and an Irish patriot; his pious mother pursuing her private war with his step-father; Pat?s English-Protestant cousin Andrew Chase-White, an officer in King Edward?s Horse and Frances, the girl he loves. Weaving between them all moves Millie Kinnard ? fast, feminist, and only just respectable.\u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nIris Murdoch was born in Dublin in 1919.
