Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Good. It is the Easter weekend of 1949, the date of the declaration of the Irish Republic, but in the city of 'Ballycastle', Martin Melody, the pub-crawling university student, and his disreputable friends are too busy drinking and lusting after girls to pay much attention to this political development. O hEithir, drawing upon rich personal experiences of life in the west of Ireland, paints a rackety picture using sniffy landladies, crackpot academics, hectoring clergymen, dolled-up virgins, and dockside down-and-outs, among other hilarious characters. A nephew of Liam O'Flaherty, he was one of Ireland's most evocative and waggish novelists of modern times and this was the first Irish-language novel to lead the best-seller list in Ireland. He died in 1990. Seller Inventory # 001851
