Castle Rackrent

Told by an old family servant, this short novel offers a sharp, ironic view of a declining Anglo-Irish estate. Through gossip and recollection, it captures the waste, folly, and ruin of a landowning dynasty. With humor and bite, it explores class, loyalty, and the cost of privilege in a rapidly changing Ireland.

Four generations of foolish landlords-one loyal servant’s tale. Can a family survive when it squanders everything but its pride?
