Product Description
Review
'Joyce, O'Flaherty, Brian Moore, a fistful of O'Briens, this is a succulent Who's Who of Irish writing, and Dermot Bolger is of the same ilk. An exceptional literary gift.' Independent 'This novel is profoundly original and daring, shedding light on a version of Ireland about which most of us know almost nothing. More importantly, it is also a hauntingly beautiful piece of work, broad in scope, passionate in execution. Bolger combines the subtlety of a poet with the artistry of a master storyteller. His writing is an absolute pleasure. ' Joseph O Connor, author of Star of the Sea 'Dermot Bolger's vision is ragingly incandescent. He has been described as Dublin's Pasolini, and truly his work exerts a cinematic grip. Bolger is to contemporary Dublin what Dickens was to Victorian London: archivist, reporter, sometime infuriated lover. Certainly, no understanding of Ireland's capital at the close of the 20th century is complete without an acquaintance with his magnificent writing.' Joseph O'Connor
Scottish Sunday Herald
'Bolger has never written better...the richness of Sheila Fitzgerald’s experience...adds a special dimension to this remarkable book.'
