THE DEATH OF beloved Irish novelist Maeve Binchy has been greeted with an outpouring of grief at the loss of a warm, generous spirit.
While tributes rolled in to Binchy’s witty and charismatic personality, so too have people been reflecting on her great legacy: her work.
Commenting on our report of her death last night, some of you have been naming your favourite Binchy book on Facebook and Twitter – Light A Penny Candle, Tara Road, Circle of Friends and her newspaper columns have all come up for mention.
If you were to give a Binchy book to someone who had never read her work, what would you recommend? We’d love to hear your thoughts on your reading experiences in the comments section below.

Random and pretty interesting! Thank you for an interesting fact for my (empty) DART journey :)
Interesting article…..I always thought the building was occupied…..I love quirky stories like that.
Surprised to hear that the building is just a billboard??? What a waste.
I always taught it was ‘Time Square’ not ‘Times Square’ ………..always learning
If you want to learn something else it’s “thought”, not “taught”.
Times Square is great to see once or twice (night/day) for the lights etc but the place gives me a headache. Overcrowded and overpriced. I wouldn’t recommend anyone in NY go near the area on NYE either
have your say
