"While writing columns for The Irish Times and her bestselling novels, Maeve Binchy had in mind to write a book that revolved around one street with its many characters. Every once in a while, she would write about one of these people and put it in a drawer. "For the future," she would say. The future is now. Just around the corner from St. Jarlath's Crescent is Chestnut Street, where we encounter very different people with different life circumstances, occupations, and sensibilities. It is a pleasure to be part of this world with all of its joys and sorrows, to get to know the good and the bad and ultimately to have our hearts warmed once more by Maeve Binchy's storytelling."
"Just round the corner from St Jarlath's Crescent is Chestnut Street. Here, the lives of the residents are revealed in Maeve Binchy's wonderfully compelling tales: Bucket Maguire, the window cleaner, who must do more than he bargained for to protect his son. Nessa Byrne, whose aunt comes to visit from America for six weeks every summer and turns the house - and Nessa's world - upside down. Lilian, the generous girl with a big heart, and the fiance not everyone approves of. And Melly, whose gossip about the neighbours leads to trouble in the form of the fortune teller, 'Madame Magic'."

At Chestnut Street in Dublin, neighbors come and go.
