"Stop The Tsunami" is the English language version of an Irish (Gaelic) novel published by Cló Iar-Chonnacht in An Spidéal in the West of Ireland. It tells the story of a couple on a mythical island called "The Western Isle" off the Atlantic coast. They have money to spend, some say from a lotto win, others from tunneling in Britain and the Middle East, they decide to invest in environmental projects to help save the island as well as the planet. Tom builds a wall on the clifftop to break the power of freak waves, He has a folk memory of a wave that swept fifteen men to their deaths on a neighbouring island more than a century ago. Róisín acquires land to cover with glass and provide fruits and vegetables for the island. Their two children live quite an is idyllic life, close to their grandfather whose wife is in a Nursing Home with dementia. She was the keeper of a thousand year old religious relic which she has forgotten where she left it. The children blame their dog, Topsy for eating the bone. Politics, religion, and the threat of extinction by a Tsunami dominate conversations on an island which can be seen as a microcosm of our fire and ocean threatened world. But wit and wisdom live there too.
