Description
‘Tired of walking in the dream I have returned to the country where I was born half a century ago’ – The Higgins family is now dispersed; the third son of four brothers is himself the father of three sons in a family also dispersed, and our author ‘looking for the quietness that Julian Sorel found in prison. ‘ he finds this problematical peace, sharing a bungalow near Brittas in Co Wicklow in an awkward two year tenancy with a school mistress with back back trouble. DOG DAYS is an account of those two years, with flashbacks to previous diaries that reveal a murky Dublin of whores and Provo killing, a raindrenched Connemara.
