The Misadventures of Father Tom

By: Squid McFinnigan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Father Tom is a truly loveable character, who despite his best intentions, tumbles from one misadventure after another, while trying to help out his friends. Standing six foot two, the only thing bigger than Father Tom’s stature, is his heart. He’s always on hand to help out friends or neighbours, but things rarely go to plan. This collection of stories follows Father Tom, and other legendary characters, on their wild and wacky escapades. The phrase, it seemed like a good idea at the time, could well have been invented just for them. These were the events that made growing up in a small Irish village, such fun. While the Ireland I grew up in was filled with good natured adventure, our modern society has a dark side. The last story, Duggie Finn, takes a look at the underbelly of this country, and the things that happen all too often.
