About this listen
An Irish Country Welcome is a charming entry in Patrick Taylor's internationally best-selling Irish Country series.
In the close-knit Northern Irish village of Ballybucklebo, it’s said that a new baby brings its own welcome. Young doctor Barry Laverty and his wife, Sue, are anxiously awaiting their first child, but as the community itself prepares to welcome a new decade, the closing months of the 1960s bring more than a televised moon landing to Barry, his friends, his neighbors, and his patients, including a number of sticky questions.
A fledgling doctor joins the practice as a trainee, but will the very upper-class Sebastian Carson be a good fit for the rough and tumble of Irish country life? And as sectarian tensions rise elsewhere in Ulster, can a Protestant man marry the Catholic woman he dearly loves, despite his father’s opposition? And who exactly is going to win the award for the best dandelion wine at this year’s Harvest Festival?
But while Barry and Dr. Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly and their fellow physicians deal with everything from brain surgery to a tractor accident to a difficult pregnancy, there’s still time to share the comforting joys and pleasures of this very special place: fly-fishing, boat races, and even the town’s very first talent competition!
Welcome back to Ballybucklebo, as vividly brought to life by a master storyteller.

How can this series keep getting better
This book and indeed the whole series is balm for the soul and funny bone. It’s colourful and complicated characters continually surprise and each book adds new and interesting problems. This is no treacly sweet series yet is positive and delightful reading. I’ve got the entire series on ebooks and hard copy Trust me, it’s impossible to get road rage when driving and listening. I love the narration as well and the added Irish language sayings at the back of the books can be helpful. The series are now being read and passed ago to my GenX children and their friends now as well. As the Irish say it contains “ a thousand welcomes”.
