About the Book

JIM SULIVAN'S ADVENTURES IN THE GREAT SNOW. Being a Ninth Extract from the Legacy of the late Francis Purcell, P.P. of Drumcoolagh. Jim Sulivan was a dacent, honest boy as you'd find in the seven parishes, an' he was a beautiful singer, an' an illegant dancer intirely, an' a mighty plisant boy in himself; but he had the divil's bad luck, for he married for love, an 'av coorse he niver had an asy minute afther. Nell Gorman was the girl he fancied, an' a beautiful slip of a girl she was, jist twinty to the minute when he married her. She was as round an' as complate in all her shapes as a firkin, you'd think, an' her two cheeks was as fat an' as red, it id open your heart to look at them. But beauty is not the thing all through, an' as beautiful as she was she had the divil's tongue, an' the divil's timper, an' the divil's behaviour all out; an' it was impossible for him to be in the house with her for while you'd count tin without havin' an argymint, an' as sure as she riz an argymint with him she'd hit him a wipe iv a skillet or whatever lay next to her hand. Well, this wasn't at all plasin' to Jim Sulivan you may be sure, an' there was scarce a week that his head wasn't plasthered up, or his back bint double, or his nose swelled as big as a pittaty, with the vilence iv her timper, an' his heart was scalded everlastin'ly with her tongue; so he had no pace or quietness in body or soul at all at all, with the way she was goin' an. Well, your honour, one cowld snowin' evenin' he kim in afther his day's work regulatin' the men in the farm, an' he sat down very quite by the fire, for he had a scrimmidge with her in the mornin', an' all he wanted was an air iv the fire in pace; so divil a word he said but dhrew a stool an' sat down close to the fire. Well, as soon as the woman saw him, .... Sheridan Le Fanu, born August 28, 1814 in Dublin, where he died February 10, 1873, is an Irish writer. This is one of the major authors of the fantastic tale. The first successes The year 1851 marked a turning point in the career of the prolific writer with the publication of his first collection of fantastic news: Ghost Stories and Tales of Mysteries. Following the death of the father of Susanna, Joseph and his wife moved into her father's house that Susanna has inherited 18 Merrion Square. Le Fanu will spend the rest of his life. It is in this exclusive residential area of Dublin that Le Fanu met the knight Sir William Robert Wills Wilde, Irish surgeon, and Jane Francesca Elgee of so-called "Speranza", Irish poet and nationalist. Therefore, although anecdotal, seems nevertheless interesting to note that since this couple of friends will like child another writer, will become the enfant terrible of Irish letters both in his work by his private life, Oscar Wilde . The wife of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Susanna, shows the first signs of the disease that will win seven years later. On 1 August 1854 born George Brinslay, which will illustrate later novels of his father and realize the few portraits of him to have survived
