Download or read book Leonard and Hungry Paul written by Ronan Hession and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A disarming novel that asks a simple question: Can gentle people change the world? In this charming and truly unique debut, popular Irish musician Ronan Hession tells the story of two single, thirty-something men who still live with their parents and who are . . . nice. They take care of their parents and play board games together. They like to read. They take satisfaction from their work. They are resolutely kind. And they realize that none of this is considered . . . normal. Leonard and Hungry Paul is the story of two friends struggling to protect their understanding of what’s meaningful in life. It is about the uncelebrated people of this world — the gentle, the meek, the humble. And as they struggle to persevere, the book asks a surprisingly enthralling question: Is it really them against the world, or are they on to something?

  • Author : Ronan Sheehan
  • Publisher : Lilliput Press
  • Release : 2016
  • ISBN : 9781843516903
  • Pages : 156 pages

Download or read book Dublin written by Ronan Sheehan and published by Lilliput Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lilliput Press is proud to reissue this iconic view of Dublin's northside docks area in the 1980s, which comprises Ronan Sheehan's text and over 50 black and white photographs by Brendan Walsh. Widely regarded as one of the finest studies of Dublin during this period, The Heart Of The City was taught in UCD and Trinity and to students of Urban Folklore. This edition features a revised introduction by Sheriff Street-born writer and actor Peter Sheridan. Dublin film-director John Carney (Bachelor's Walk, Once, Begin Again) writes a new foreword. More poignant still in the aftermath of The Celtic Tiger, this is a remarkable portrait of a people and city so badly affected by the catastrophic collapse of employment on the docks in the 1960s and by irresponsible urban planning
