Your inheritance is not the things that come down to you, it's the things you can't get rid of.

Foley is the last of his family, among the last Protestants in the Republic of Ireland, "the end point of all that evolution and fruitcake." He attempts to recall his life, to work out what went wrong all the way, why he's so fond of an old pair of shoes. Michael West's award-winning Foley is a funny and moving exploration of what your family really passes on to you.
