Standing in Gaps
âWe hadnât a clue âtil we got the telly and then we wanted to be like Dallas. We were never happy, that we knew of. We were always longing for something else, so we kept doing the same. What we wouldnât do to go back and give ourselves a good boot up the backside.â
Â
When actor, playwright and comedian Seamus OâRourke first published Standing in Gaps in 2020 it found a wide audience amongst readers in rural Ireland. With a distinct talent for seeing the absurd in the ordinary, mundane lives of people who âhad nothing better to be atâ and making it hilarious, Standing in Gaps manages to turn back time and transport the reader to a place where everything moved slowly â and in the Leitrim of the â60s, â70s and â80s, that means really slowly.
In this memoir about family, people and time, OâRourke finds diamond-tipped-needles in bales of really bad hay, providing laughter and stories of mayhem for his many fans.
