That They May Face The Rising Sun by John McGahern
Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.
1.0
I am done after 35 pages. It was like Father Fitzgerald (Father Ted), Uncle Colm (Derry Girls) and Know-it-All (Polar Express) were all in a room telling you what happened at the Parish Hall meeting while you're trying to watch your favourite TV show.
Literally the most Irish thing I've read in a while and I'm really bothered by how much it is considered Literature. No wonder any local 'Tom, Dick and Mary' thinks the have a right to your privacy when this is considered Great Irish Writing.
