Breakfast on Pluto by Patrick McCabe

3.0

I can't tell if I love the way the storyline is written or am put off by it. It's not your typical, linear style of writing: "This happened, then this happened, and finally this happened.", but more conversational. It's all told in this off the cuff style that borders on flippant, but it seems to work for the character of Patrick "Pussy" Braden. There is a positivity in the undercurrent of Pussy's words that makes even the most awful incidents turn into charming tales to regale the reader. It's not heavy on the vernacular, which is a God-send for me, but still very authentically Irish. All I know for sure is I want Pussy in my posse.
