Book Description

February 3, 2005
Noel Boyle, newly arrived in Dublin, is a man threatened by his past and petrified by his future. He aches for space and change, another run at things. Instead he runs into Fada, an utterly unreliable clown-like street performer, crazed by his own liberty and poetry. It turns into a dangerous collision for both of them...

Editorial Reviews

Review

"'A major achievement; poised, raucous and real, and simply light years superior to anything published by his contemporaries... outstanding.' Irish Times; 'A striking account of the human debris left in the wake of "the Troubles"; like Raymond Carver played out to the sweet rhythms of The Pogues.' Independent on Sunday; 'Genuinely compelling.' Guardian"
