Synopsis
Continuing the theme of her well-received first volume of sketches, Politicians and Other Animals , Olivia O'Leary captures party animals of all colours, from frontbench lions and backbench lambs, to republican frogs and PD rottweilers. Opposition hounds and government foxes are likewise deconstructed. Beyond the Dail, property bulls and their many commuter victims, make up the political circus.

About the Author
A familiar face on our screens and voice on our radio and in our newspapers over the last thirty years, we know Olivia O'Leary from RTE's Prime Time and its predecessor Today Tonight, from the BBC's Newsnight and from BBC Radio 4's Between Ourselves. Her broadcasting career is interlaced with her journalistic career with The Irish Times and The Sunday Tribune. Most recently she was back on RTE with Later with O'Leary and on radio with In My Life and her slot on Five-Seven Live.
Review
brilliantly done . . . exact, to the point and very insightful. -- Vincent Banville - Irish Examiner * The Irish Examiner * [She] manages to get inside the world of politics and illuminate it with telling observations in this series of sketches. The author's great strength is that even though she may sigh for the great battles of old, she gives careful attention to the battles of today. Her judgments do not come from the top of her head but are formed after careful and close examination of the events and personalities that she writes about. -- Stephen Collins - The Irish Times O'Leary brings her keen eye and lively pen to bear on political leaders. Smart observations abound, and O'Leary's depth of political knowledge drips from the pages -- The Sunday Business Post * Sunday Business Post *
