I was hesitant at the start of this because I figured much of its humor and meaning was intrinsically Irish and would be lost on me, but was so pleasantly surprised at how laugh out loud funny it was at times! Aside from its absurd humor I found many wonderful passages both beautiful and haunting in their prose. immensely enjoyable.
