Roddy Doyle recommends
Fever Pitch (1992) Nick Hornby "Funny, wise and true." | Give Us a Kiss: A Country Noir (1996) Daniel Woodrell "I loved it. Woodrell is a marvellous writer." | In the Beginning (1997) Catherine Dunne "Beautifully written, perfectly paced and very, very moving." | |
The Crooked Man (1997) (Harry Fielding, book 1) Philip Davison "... memorable and very accomplished book." | The Salesman (1997) Joseph O'Connor "Joseph O'Connor has a great eye for the absurd in common things, a great ear for the comic in ordinary speech. His writing is terrific." | The Whereabouts of Eneas McNulty (1998) Sebastian Barry "This is a powerful, unique book. Sebastian Barry's language is utterly new and quite magnificent; it was like reading English for the first time." | |
Sing! (2001) Michael Curtin "One of Ireland's very best writers. His books are marvellous achievements, very funny and very, very human." | Sons of Destiny (2004) (Saga of Darren Shan, book 12) Darren Shan "I love the way you manage to juggle funny with the unpleasant, the affection with the hurt. It's great story-telling." | The Midnight Choir (2006) Gene Kerrigan "A great writer... relentless and brilliant." | |
The Third Party (2007) Glenn Patterson "An intriguing and highly entertaining novel." |
