Read excerpt
There are people who insist that modern Irish society is too educated to believe in curses and superstitions. These people have never spent much time in Ireland. The country's biggest talking point this week was the legendary Mayo curse, finally laid to rest when the players of County Mayo defeated those of County Kerry in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship at Croke Park.
