Avid reader for years of Dervla Murphy, living in England where can I get a copy of her hr long film with her daughter Rachel and the Trio ? Shown in Ireland in May 2011
I, too, would like to purchase a copy of the documentary on Dervla. In the early 80′s I found my first Dervla book (used) in a small bookstore in Katmandu on my way to the mountains of Nepal for a month. I was in my 50′s then and have continued reading her books and being inspired by this gracious and unique traveler. She is an international treasure.
Thank you for your response.
