Fiction. Literature. HTML: Set mainly in Ireland on a dairy farm, Blessed Are the Cheesemakers tells the story of two old men, Joseph "Corrie" Corrigan and Joseph "Fee" Feehan who are the best cheesemakers in the world, and the broken hearted women and whisky-soaked men they rescue in the course of their daily doing. There's a love story, a family story, the lore of cheese-making (fiction or not), and some wonderfully appealing characters, including the cows which only give their top grade product when milked by vegetarian, unwed, pregnant teenagers who sing "The Sound of Music" while at their task. A tender and funny novel with a colorful cast of characters. .… (altro)

This was loads of fun, and I really enjoyed reading this. The two protagonists were pretty boring by themselves, but the cast of supporting characters - the loving and good natured housekeeper, the temperamental Lucy, the two affable old cheesemakers, even the townspeople who you see for only a scene or two - they carried the story along. I wish the story was longer, though. There were things I wanted to see resolved that never were, but all in all, a good read. A bit slow the first half but it really picked up steam once all the main characters were all together on the farm. (

Jag läste större delen av boken i ett enda svep, jag vet inte riktigt om det var för att den var svår att lägga ifrån sig eller om det mest var prokrastinering. Den var ganska trevlig i alla fall (även om jag var lite tveksam först i början när vi blev presenterarde för Kit). (

I really liked this book. The title comes from a quote from Monty Python's Life of Brian so right away it captures the quirkiness of the story. Two Irishmen own one of the strangest cheese making enterprises in the world. Only pregnant unwed vegetarian girls milk the cows, the pasteurizer never comes in contact with the milk and the quality control consists of the two cheesemakers tasting the cheese each morning. Into their life comes a burned-out New York stockbroker and a granddaughter of one of the men who is escaping from her own problems.

It's a delightful read and full of lots of information about cheesemaking. (

I listened to this book on Audio CD. It was recommended to me by my mother, as it is one of her favorites. I really liked the accents of the narrator and the story itself. (
