Title: This book put the Irish race back 400 years! Sad!
Review: My own Irishness enjoyed his rapier Irish wit at first--after that fun beginning his book traveled ever downhill. The only reason I continued reading was to find the place where "until he (Malachy) had no choice but to stop and turn and face his past" as stated on the jacket cover. Was that part of the story left out? Maybe he's planning on writing a sequel. I'd like to think Malachy grew up. His childhood was indeed horrible, but when he matured (?) he must have sometime realized that he had to take responsibily for his own actions. His "words" to God especially sickened me. Glad I got this book from the library rather than putting money out for it. His "bro" Frank is a prince!
