Light A Penny Candle by Maeve Binchy


Listen Later

Re-reading Maeve's debut novel made us fall in love with her all over again and we're pretty sure you will too. An epic tale of two friends who meet when they are ten. Aisling is an Irish country girl and Elizabeth is a refugee from London during the blitz. In spite of their many differences - cultural, political, religious - the pair become great friends and their friendship sustains them throughout the twenty years the novel spans.
