Flann O'Brien's first novel is a brilliant impressionistic jumble of ideas,
mythology and nonsense. Operating on many levels it incorporates plots within
plots, giving full rein to O'Brien's dancing intellect and Celtic wit. The
undergraduate narrator lives with his uncle in Dublin, drinks too much with his
friends and invents stories peopled with hilarious and unlikely characters, one
of whom, in a typical O'Brien conundrum, creates a means by which women can give
birth to full-grown people. Flann O'Brien's blend of farce, satire and fantasy
result in a remarkable, astonishingly innovative book.
