This wonderfully quirky collection of narrative poems about a fictional small Irish village reads like a epic novel - from the pub to the marriage bed and the football field, all human life is here.
Paddy Kennelly brings to life the village's wayward youths, its adulterers, chancers and cuckolds, and even a few upstanding citizens. From Kentucky to Kakadu, I defy you not to recognise some characters!
"Kennelly has a sure touch, an often astonishing turn of phrase and an undoubted feel for rural parts... [his] monologues are penetrating and incisive, [he] has a sharp eye for hypocrisy and double-dealing, - this is a book you'll really enjoy."
Fr. Brendan Hoban, Western People
