Combining the razor-sharp wit of writer Declan Lynch with
illustrations and contributions from Father Ted co-creator Arthur
Mathews. Since Declan Lynch and Arthur Mathews first shone a light
into this darkest corner of the darkest living room in all of
Ireland over a decade ago, things have actually got worse for that
almost-forgotten species we call the Poor Ould Fellas - impossible
though it seems. Further confined to their unhappy dwelling places
by the drink-driving laws, a new range of challenges have emerged
to torment them in a baffling post-analog world, where emails seek
to release them from the few remaining shillings that weren't
stolen by bankers during the crash. Now they must negotiate a
universe full of new words (falafel, bitcoin, Spotify) and concepts
(texting, sexting, going away for the weekend, composing a tweet,
growing a beard, online banking) that mean absolutely nothing to
them. Notes from a Lost Tribe is a hilarious road map through a
world of forgotten men and their equally forgotten dogs, who ask
for so little - yet it is denied them. And still ... somehow ...
inexplicably ... they go on.
