Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Patrick McGinley is able to do what few novelists can: write stories and characters that are drenched in place (specifically, rural Ireland), and yet totally devoid of cheap sentimentality. His landscapes have the edgy, ludicrous beauty of a dream - unstable and prone to capsize into nightmare.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Patrick McGinley (b 1937) is an Irish novelist, born in Glencolumbkille, Ireland.</p><p>After teaching in Ireland, McGinley moved to England where he pursued a career as a publisher and author. Among his strongest literary influences is his Irish predecessor, author Flann O'Brien, who McGinley emulates most noticeably in his novel <i>The Devil's Diary</i>.</p>
