Description:
"Mondo Desperado, " Patrick McCabe's fiction of connected narratives, sustains the singular voice and style that have brought him universal acclaim. In his tales of the insular Irish town of Barntrosna, McCabe assembles a motley crew of unusual inhabitants, such as Larry Bunyan, a man certain his demure wife leads a secret nightlife filled with deadbeat swingers, drugs, and wild sex; the Bishop of Barntrosna, who believes that he's ordained the devil in the form of Father Packie Cooley; and Noreen Tiernan, a sheltered girl who goes to school in London and discovers lesbianism, hellraising, and the delicious taste of rebellion until her mother, boyfriend, and priest bring her back home.
Expand description
With blistering wit and a macabre genius, Mondo Desperado is a wonderfully imagined work of fiction -- his most dazzling yet -- from a truly original literary talent.
