Lisa in Bookland | The Lonely Sea and Sky by Dermot Bolger: Spoiler Free Individual Book Review #irishreadathon @lisainbookland | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
I just finished this wonderful book, The Lonely Sea and Sky by Dermot Bolger, which is coming-of-age tale about a young boy who has his first voyage on an Irish merchant ship during the Second World War. I enjoyed it so much I had to do an individual book review for it. I hope this video encourages you to read it!

I originally heard of this book from @EricKarlAnderson's wonderful review here: youtube.com/watch?v=S36dgWa5D6k
