DISCOVER PUCKOON, SPIKE MILLIGAN'S CLASSIC SLAPSTICK NOVEL 'Pops
with the erratic brilliance of a careless match in a box of
fireworks' Daily Mail In 1924 the Boundary Commission is tasked
with creating the new official division between Northern Ireland
and the Irish Republic. Through incompetence, dereliction of duty
and sheer perversity, the border ends up running through the middle
of the small town of Puckoon. Houses are divided from outhouses,
husbands separated from wives, bars are cut off from their patrons,
churches sundered from graveyards. And in the middle of it all is
poor Dan Milligan, our feckless protagonist, who is taunted and
manipulated by everyone (including the sadistic author) to try and
make some sense of this mess . . . 'Bursts at the seams with superb
comic characters involved in unbelievably likely troubles on the
Irish border' Observer 'Our first comic philosopher' Eddie Izzard
