buy this book

Superchick. It is available for international delivery, and it is cheap, cheap, cheap. It is one of the best Dublin-set books I've read, capturing the atmosphere remarkably well given that the guy who wrote it was, to the best of my knowledge, in either Japan or Australia when he did actually write it. Occasional roman a clefs include the fact that certain aspects of the main character's band come from an Irish band in the Tokyo scene tastefully titled "Yer Mot's A Dog", which is a dublinese phrase that roughly translates as "your significant other isn't exactly pretty". The book is a laugh riot from start to finish and you are totally clicking on the link and buying it already. Note, I get nothing out of this flagrant promotion other than knowing that you are buying a good book and supporting a small-time author.

Have you clicked the link yet?
