Meticulously researched, and superbly imagined, The Commoner is the mesmerizing, moving, and surprising story of a brutally rarefied and controlled existence, at once hidden and exposed, and of a complex relationship between two isolated women who, despite being visible to all, are truly understood only by each other.

Readers of Patrick Taylor's books know Mrs. Kinky Kincaid as the unflappable housekeeper who looks after two frequently frazzled doctors in the colourful Irish village of Ballybucklebo. She is a trusted fixture in the lives of those around her, and it often seems as though Kinky has always been there.Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Would you consider the audio edition of An Irish Country Girl to be better than the print version?
I can only listen as I can't see well enough to read the printed word. A good narrator is worth his/her weight in gold.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Kinky
Which character – as performed by Terry Donnelly – was your favorite?
Kinky
If you could take any character from An Irish Country Girl out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Kinky. She is interesting, wise, a great cook, and a wonderful storyteller
