About this product

Product Information

When an eleven-year-old English boy arrives in Southern Ireland, walking on his hands and quoting Shakespeare, the natives begin to treat him with suspicion. The town he finds himself in is a small mid-century (1950) maelstrom of snobbery, nationalism, sexual repression and quaint quintessential Irish intolerance, presided over by a clergy, discharging duties of guidance and tutelage with unparalleled fervour. It also has a spectral madman, wandering the Wicklow Mountains, calling to the moon for his young wife who has been buried alive in the bogs. Avoiding the clutches of the madman and with a pathological desire to avenge all wrongs, be they big or small, real or imagined, he embarks on a mission to win the bemused community to his side. Perhaps trying to murder the meretricious Plunkett brothers isn't the best way to go about it. Do we ever see ourselves as others see us? But guided by the gentle Brother Mulligan and the impish but morally sound Poppy Boyle, the boy begins to come to terms with himself and with others and after some harsh lessons, earns through rite of passage, his first steps to adolescence.

Great seller! Item arrived on time and was well packaged. If I was to have one niggle about this item, it is that, in the description it states that all pages will be free from markings. However, there were pages within this book that had been highlited by the previous owner. Other than that though, I am very satisfied and will definitely buy from this seller again.

Good service, quick delivery. However item was described as "very good" and I would describe it as.. fair (see photos). I guess this is reflected in the price but probably wouldn't have bought in this condition if I'm being honest.
