Buffun is wracked by the living nightmare of Irish history. His
torments are surreal but no less frightening than the awful truth.
When Oliver Cromwell turns up, the hapless buffoon can't cope. This
Cromwell is a cocky tyrant who wants to run a football team, or
start a taxi business. Enter the Belly, the IRA, an Irish giant,
and Billy of the Boyne: 'William of Orange is polishing pianos / In
convents and other delicate territories, / His nose purple from
sipping turpentine.' Kennelly's Cromwell delighted and scandalised
readers in Ireland when it was first published by a small Dublin
press in 1983. This extraordinary, extravagantly Irish act of
revenge has retained its power to shock.
