Meet the Pope's Children - the new Irish generation, born either
side of the Pope's visit, who have been squeezed into the middle
and lifted up by the Celtic Tiger. David McWilliams' brilliant,
bestselling survey of Ireland today is a celebration of success. He
takes us to Deckland, that suburban state of mind where you'll find
the Kells Angels, those out-of-town commuters who are the cutting
edge of the new prosperity. He introduces the HiCos - the
Hiberno-Cosmopolitans - the elite whose distance from Deckland is
measured in their cool sophistication, their ability to feel at
home equally on the Boulevard Saint-Michel and on Hill 16. The
Pope's Children is an antidote to the endless pessimism of the
Commentariat, official Ireland's gloomy opinion mongers, forever
seeing a glass half empty that is in fact three-quarters full.
There is a vast surge of ambition, new money, optimism and hope out
there. That's the real story: The Pope's Children tells it with
style.
