From Robert E. Kearns - Crystal Clear
In the heart of Waterford City, Peadar Deegan’s life unfolds with the quiet resilience of a man shaped by humble beginnings. From the drafty outhouse of his childhood home to the gleaming modernity of an indoor bathroom, Peadar’s journey is one of small triumphs and steadfast dreams. With a steady hand and a love for learning nurtured in an unlikely place—the restroom—Peadar discovers a hidden talent for art and earns his place as a skilled crystal glass cutter at Waterford’s iconic factory.
As he carves out a life of purpose, from apprentice to master craftsman, Peadar navigates the joys and challenges of family, love, and personal ambition. His sanctuary, the bathroom, becomes a haven for reflection, creativity, and the occasional escape from a house brimming with teenage daughters. Through it all, Peadar’s story sparkles with warmth, wit, and the enduring beauty of a life well-lived.
Crystal Clear is a heartfelt tale of perseverance, craft, and the quiet spaces where dreams take shape; culminating in a poignant tribute that immortalizes Peadar’s legacy in the very crystal he spent his life perfecting. Ideal for readers who cherish stories of everyday heroes and the extraordinary moments found in ordinary lives.
