Bøker av Donall Mac Amhlaigh

A classic account of Irish army life by a working-class writer whose work and contribution to literary culture is only now being fully appreciated.

This well-crafted novel is one of the few novels in either Irish or English that explores this generation of Irish people, often termed the "silent" or "lost generation" when over a half-a-million people emigrated, primarily to Britain, to work in the post-war economy there - "building England up and tearing it down again."
