paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. New York. 1989. July 1989. Vintage Books. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0679721746. Paperback Original. 166 pages. paperback. Cover design by Lorraine Louie. Cover illustration by Jose Cruz, Inset of James Brown by Roy Pendleton, Push Pin Assoc…iates. Signed by the Author. keywords: Europe Ireland Literature World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Take a group of fame-starved, working-class Irish youths who call themselves The Commitments, give them a paradoxical passion for the music of Sam Cooke and Otis Redding, and a mission - to bring Soul to Dublin - and you have the makings of one of the most engaging and believable novels about rock 'n' roll ever written, a book whose brashness and originality have won it mainstream acclaim and underground cachet. Roddy Doyle, a young Dubliner, writes about the band with a fan's enthusiasm, about his city with a native's cheerful knowingness. His book captures all the shadings of the rock experience: ambition, greed, and egotism and the redeeming, exhilarating joy of making music. 'Young, feisty, funky, rude. .and great fun, THE COMMITMENTS acquits itself perfectly in the torrid zone of The Rock Novel [and] is a contender for the funniest debut of the year. .as sharp as a Stanley knife.' - TIME OUT. A VINTAGE CONTEMPORARIES ORIGINAL. inventory #26093. Signed by the Author.
