Reviews
Grade 9 Up - This book focuses on the Irish author perhaps best known for his novel The Commitments;its main purpose is to serve as an interactive reading guide. Each chapter highlights one novel, guiding readers with questions about themes, characters, and style. Although scant biographical information is included, the short interview with Doyle sheds much light on his style and themes. This title may be too detailed for average students looking for quick information, but those in AP classes might find it quite useful. - Elizabeth M. Reardon, McCallie School, Chattanooga, TN
