Reseña del libro "A Fine Place to Daydream: Racehorses, Romance, and the Irish"
Twenty-five years after Laughing in the Hills, his racetrack classic, Bill Barich tells the story of how he fell in love and found a new life in Dublin, where he was soon caught up in the Irish obsession with horses and luck. Barich travels his adopted country and meets the leading trainers and jockeys; the beleaguered bookies who work rain or shine; and a host of passionate, like-minded fansfrom Father Sean Breen, the Racing Priest, to T. P. Reilly, whose peculiar betting system turns on a horses looks.Witty, philosophical, and vividly written, A Fine Place to Daydream is a paean to the real Ireland, a moving tale of a surprise romance, and a thrilling account of a hugely exciting season at the track.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
