A review by whatsmacksaid
City of Bohane by Kevin Barry

4.0

It took me forever to get through this, but I did really enjoy it. The prose requires a certain fluid kind of mindset to enjoy--it's written in dialect, and some of the slang is made up, so you kind of just have to go with it.

I'm not much for books that are about the journey rather than the destination, but in this case I enjoyed both. I returned my library copy just so I could buy my own.
