Trade review
The reissue of this fantastic 1968 volume, containing all the best pieces from celebrated news columnist Myles na Gopaleen - the pseudonym for Flann O'Brien. This wonderful selection is a modern classic that will appeal to lovers of absurdity and sharp comic observation everywhere.
Synopsis
Under the pseudonym Myles na Gopaleen, Flann O' Brien wrote a daily column in the 'Irish Times' called 'Cruiskeen Lawn' for over twenty years which hilariously satirised the absurdities and solemnities of Dublin life.
