Eleven Houses by Christopher Fitz-Simon
Christopher Fitz-Simon was born into an extraordinary Irish family, with Daniel 'The Liberator' O'Connell on one side and Ulster Protestants on the other, and his childhood coincided with the Second World War - or, as it was known in the southern Irish state, the Emergency. This is a memoir of his family's odd progress through odd years.
Christopher Fitz-Simon was born in Belfast and raised - apart from the years covered in this book - mainly in Co. Monaghan. He was artistic director of the Irish Theatre Company, and subsequently literary manager and then artistic director of the National Theatre (Abbey and Peacock). He is the author of a number of books, including The Arts in Ireland, The Boys (a biography of Micheal MacLiammoir and Hilton Edwards), and The Abbey Theatre. He lives in Dublin.
