About this product
Product Information
Flann O'Brien, along with Joyce and Beckett, is part of the holy trinity of modern Irish literature. His five novels-collected here in one volume-are a monument to his inspired lunacy and gleefully demented genius. O'Brien's masterpiece, At Swim-Two-Birds, is an exuberant literary send-up and one of the funniest novels of the twentieth century. The novel's narrator is writing a novel about another man writing a novel, in a Celtic knot of interlocking stories. The riotous cast of characters includes figures stolen from Gaelic legends, along with assorted students, fairies, ordinary Dubliners, and cowboys, some of whom try to break free of their author's control and destroy him. The narrator of The Third Policeman, who has forgotten his name, is a student of philosophy who has committed murder and wanders into a surreal hell where he encounters such oddities as the ghost of his victim, three policeman who experiment with space and time, and his own soul (who is named Joe ). The Poor Mouth, a bleakly hilarious portrait of peasants in a village dominated by pigs, potatoes, and endless rain, is a giddy parody aimed at those who would romanticize Gaelic culture. A naive young orphan narrates the deadpan farce The Hard Life, and The Dalkey Archive is an outrageous satiric fantasy featuring a mad scientist who uses relativity to age his whiskey, a policeman who believes men can turn into bicycles, and an elderly, bar-tending James Joyce. With a new Introduction by Keith Donohue

In one word, delighted! This item was accurately and honestly described in the original listing, in fact it was far better than expected, being in basically "new" condition. I cannot recommend this trader highly enough, had to wait a wee while for delivery but it was well worth it, great packaging too! Very happy here, many thanks and regards, W.

El libro llego en el tiempo que se especificó, aunque lo veo excesivo, por otra parte el embalaje del exterior era como un sobre el cual llego roto por las cuatros esquinas y bastante deteriorado por el resto, afortunadamente en el interior en donde se encontraba el libro iba con un refuerzo de cartón que protegió el contenido, 'muy bien por parte del vendedor.' mi voto es positivo y me apunto al vendedor para próximas compras.
