Description
The Aggravations of Minnie Ashe by Cyril Kersh is a hilarious and entertaining novel that follows the life of a young Jewish boy growing up in London on the eve of the Second World War. This brilliant first novel showcases Cyril Kersh's talent for comic fiction, featuring a cast of eccentric characters who add to the story's humor and charm. Minnie Ashe, the protagonist, is a formidable figure - fiery, loquacious, and superstitious - facing a series of 'aggravations' that test her mettle. With sharp logic and an even sharper tongue, she navigates each crisis with relish, making it impossible not to cheer for this unlikely heroine. First published in 1970, The Aggravations of Minnie Ashe returns to print after more than 40 years, accompanied by a new introduction by Séamas Duffy.
