Housekeeping for Hallions
Des Donnelly has distilled the hallion philosophy into an essential handbook covering everything from fridge archaeology and the ethics of eating from the saucepan, to wellington etiquette, the correct attitude to ironing (don't), and why mirrors should always be small or cracked.
Part philosophy, part zen, entirely Irish, this book offers an alternative to the relentless pursuit of domestic perfection — a pursuit that, as any hallion will tell you, is largely unnecessary and suspiciously exhausting.
