Has Anyone Here Seen Larry? by Deirdre Purcell

Has Anyone Here Seen Larry? by Deirdre Purcell

A family drama between rival daughters that reveals a mother's passion. Larry is an 87-year-old widow. Old and frail, she remembers her youth as if it were yesterday and longs for her past vigor. Larry lives with her daughters. Martha, the "good" daughter, waits on her mother's every whim. Mary has a career, takes exotic vacations and is mother's favorite, though she never lifts a finger to help. Something has to give. One embarrassing evening, Father Jimmy comes to supper, and pent-up feelings emerge. High drama follows, and Larry is nowhere to be found.

Deirdre Purcell was born and brought up in Dublin, and educated there and in a County Mayo convent. Before turning to the writing of fiction, she lived through an eclectic set of careers, including acting, as a member of the permanent company of Ireland`s National Theatre (The Abbey), and journalism for all media - for which she won Ireland's top awards. She has written numerous fiction and non-fiction bestsellers and for six years, presented 'What It Says in the Papers'slot for RTE's Morning Ireland programme, leaving in 2018 to concentrate on her writing.
