Welcome to Litsy!

Jaysis! That was brilliant. When I was reading it, at 3am, I was worried that my giggling was going to wake people up. I can‘t believe I haven‘t read Roddy Doyle before!
It appears that these are all out of print. Not having the whole trilogy in my library is going to make me a little crazy.

This was a thoroughly funny book which reminded me of my trip to Ireland in the 80s.

Why haven't I read Roddy Doyle before? This novel is really funny. But there is more to it than you'd think at first sight. There is also trauma here and severe limitations by society, overcome by love and a kind of gallow's humour.

After a recent traumatic pregnancy, it also made me remember the good parts for the first time.

Can I just be adopted by the Rabbitte family now?
