{"product_id":"binchy-maeve-quentins-9780792727767","title":"Quentins","description":"Ella Brady wants to make a documentary about Quentins, the renowned Dublin restaurant that has captured the spirit of a generation and a city in the years it has been open. After all, every table in Quentins has a thousand stories to tell: tales of love, betrayal, revenge, hope and despair. And the restaurant itself has had times when it looks set fair for success and others when it seems as if it must close in failure. Maeve Binchy was born in County Dublin and educated at the Holy Child convent in Killiney and at University College, Dublin. After a spell as a teacher she joined the IRISH TIMES. Her first novel, LIGHT A PENNY CANDLE, was published in 1982 and she went on to write over twenty books, all of them bestsellers. Several have been adapted for cinema and television, including TARA ROAD. Maeve Binchy received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the British Book Awards in 1999 and the Irish PEN\/A.T. Cross award in 2007. In 2010 she was presented with the Bob Hughes Lifetime Achievement Award at the Bord Gáis Irish Book Awards by the President of Ireland. She was married to the writer and broadcaster Gordon Snell for 35 years, and died in 2012.","brand":"Chivers Audio Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53809026072918,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/binchy-maeve-quentins-9780792727767","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
