About this product
Product Information
Boulevard Wren and Other Stories is the stunning follow-up to the bestselling Gospel According to Blindboy, and a warped mirror held up to the Irish psyche. Provocative and unsettling, the stories rove through the centuries, from the barren fields of Famine-struck Meath to the chaotic landscape of the near future, where social media has colonised the deepest recesses of the human subconscious. This is a world populated by characters lost and at odds with the demands of contemporary life, for whom the line separating redemption and madness has grown impossibly fine. Razor-sharp social satire, it is an era-defining work from one of Ireland's most anarchic satirists and a quietly devastating portrait of a society in disarray. 'Mad, wild, hysterical.' Kevin Barry, author of Night Boat to TangierProduct Identifiers

A creative genius. Each story is a masterpiece of descriptive writing.
Blindboy Boatclub creates stories blending every human emotion. Each story will take you on a journey through a range of human emotions including: regret, cruelty, ambition, shock, love, pain, sadness, horror and happiness within each story. He uses colourful language throughout which emphasises the feelings of his characters. Once you start reading it you will not be able to stop as Blindboy Boatclub is a master of drawing you in to his imagination and keeping you there. His style brings to life and highlights our human traits that sometimes we all wish we do not possess. A great read but maybe not for the feint hearted.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
