Shortlisted for the 2011 Costa First Novel Award

Winner of the Authors' Club Best First Novel Award


Forty years in the future. The once-great city of Bohane on the west coast of Ireland is on its knees, infested by vice and split along tribal lines. There are the posh parts of town, but it is in the slums and backstreets of Smoketown, the tower blocks of the Northside Rises and the eerie bogs of Big Nothin' that the city really lives.

For years, the city has been in the cool grip of Logan Hartnett, the dapper godfather of the Hartnett Fancy gang. But there's trouble in the air. They say his old nemesis is back in town; his trusted henchmen are getting ambitious; and his missus wants him to give it all up and go straight... And then there's his mother.

批評家のレビュー

The most arresting and original writer to emerge from these islands in years
Hilarious and unpredictable - and always brilliant
Astonishing.This marks him out as a writer of great promise
Beautiful, arresting, precise...a compelling creation
An electrifying masterpiece
City of Bohane is a book fizzing with energy, juiced up on the possibilities of language and replete with a plot
Exuberant, spine-tinglingly atmospheric... This hyper-real world stuffed with overblown violence and all manner of cartoon-like grotesques is certainly a highly entertaining place to lose yourself in
Exhilarating ...this novel confirms the arrival of a fresh and original voice in Irish literature... Hugely entertaining and original
The prose is sizzling, its molecules rocked by the force of collision...outrageously talented author...The power of the writing - of the writer's imagination - is the siren call that hooks you...It stuns you with its daring...but it works
Addictive first novel...this slangy, plosive-packed prose is what makes the book a success...an expert manipulation of syntax keeps things zingy...it is a plus point that the dystopia bears no allegorical weight, thriving purely as an imaginary realm to be taken at face value
