They came to share a home in Drishane, County Cork.

“Mientras vas cambiando de edad, vas cambiando de posición en El Mapa de la Autoestima como el sol que se mueve en el cielo mientras avanza el día. La crisis viene cada vez que se pasa una década en la vida, porque las mismas hazañas que antes sostenían tu orgullo y tu prestigio ya no tienen el mismo poder.”
