Readers Blog: Cork needs characterful shops like Ruiséal’s

I called to Liam Ruiséal’s bookshop on Monday. I was looking for a book in connection with some work I am doing on old Cork family businesses, not knowing that Liam Ruiséal’s will close soon.
Yes, it is wonderful that it has lasted 100 years, but that doesn’t make it any less sad for the family and for all Cork people.
