The debut novel from National Book Award winner and Booker nominee
Colum McCann 'Colum McCann conjures a hugely inventive debut'
Observer 'McCann writes equally well about Ireland, America and
Mexico, and he links past and present in a finely woven narrative:
Songdogs is a vivid, beautifully measured book' Sunday Times
__________________ Colum McCann's first novel goes back to the
years before the Spanish Civil War, following the adventures of a
peripatetic Irish photographer from the war-strewn shores of Europe
to the exotic plains of Mexico. The story is told in the words of
the photographer's only son, a wanderer himself, who uses his
father's unreliable memories and the fading remnants of his art to
piece together his family history and explain the mystery
surrounding his mother - a Mexican beauty brought back by his
father to Ireland.
