Synopsis: In this hilarious backdoor-to-an-autobiography, Richard Condon, Famed novelist and pioneer emigrant (one of the first of many now going in the opposite direction from their ancestors), confesses to the story of his life abroad, til he finally discovered his true love, Rossenarra, a pink house on a green hill in Ireland. The perils and delights of twenty years of world trekking proved to be mere practice for surviving the incredible burlesque performed by the Irish building trades once they set to modernizing the old Georgian villa in Kilkenny. Mad domestic misadventures and architectural miscalculations were strewn in the path of the galloping Condons, keeping them at bay for a year before the spent even a single night at their new home.
