From "Ireland's finest living novelist" (Roddy Doyle)--a funny,
moving, exquisitely written novel about a community on the cusp of
change Acclaimed Irish author Dermot Healy's first novel in more
than ten years is a rich, beguiling, and wonderfully funny story
about community, family, love, and bonds across generations, an
epic in miniature that features an unforgettable cast of innocents
and broken eccentrics. The novel presents the bemusing and
unsettling misadventures of Philip Feeney, known to one and all as
Mister Psyche, a teenager haunted by a recent traumatic event who
takes up with two men some fifty years his senior. Its still,
lyrical power casts a miraculous literary spell and will appeal to
readers of William Trevor, Roddy Doyle, John McGahern, and Anne
Enright.
