Title: a stereotypical american take on ireland
Review: God, this was a pathetic read. I was keen at first because I had been recommended Moran's work by a (usually) reliable friend. This is just full of cliche after cliche. Starting with the oh so blarney names and the oh so bleak Irish settings, the "craic", the povery stricken and drinking uncle, the poor little rich girl who doesn't realise that she is beautiful but nonetheless is described endlessly in almost masturbatory detail. Anyone not seeing the end coming a mile away needs glasses. Give me an authentic Irish voice over a loft ridden New Yorker anyday. Is this really how yanks see Ireland?
