Beskrivning
Bartholomew Port, known to all as Mew, steps into the bushes in a London park and steps out of the bushes in a Dublin one. Not only that – there are no cars; there are moving footpaths; there is no church; everything seems quite queer. Mew has arrived in a Dublin that is alive with song, with rumour, with ghosts, and with an unmistakable sense of insurgency. In this suspiciously timeless city that breathes an old revolutionary air, Mew fiercely misses his beloved Mootie, back home in London. An unravelling, an impossibility, a gathering of voices and a single dream, Dooneen is the layered, allusive and wildly original new novel from Keith Ridgway, ‘one of Ireland’s best writers, in a country with no shortage of them’ (The Times).

Recensioner i media

‘It has an immersive quality that is hard to shake once you’ve emerged – and Ridgway’s line-by-line writing is as good as ever…. But where the book stands out most is Ridgway’s writing about love…. [W]hat Dooneen leaves us with, after its eccentricities and unfathomables, is a simple understanding, as expressed by Philip Larkin – that what will survive of us is love.’— John Self, The Times
