Overview
Bartholomew Port, a writer known to all as Mew, steps into the bushes in a London park and steps out of the bushes in a Dublin one. Not only that—there are no cars; there are moving footpaths; there is no church; everything seems quite queer. Invited to a literary festival, he has arrived in a Dublin that is alive with song, with rumor, with tunnels, with ghosts, and with an unmistakable sense of insurgency. In this futuristic city that (as if crucified on time) also breathes the old air of the Troubles, Mew fiercely misses his beloved Mootie, back home in London. An unraveling, an impossibility, a gathering of voices, a transubstantiation, and a single dream, Dooneen is the layered, allusive and wildly original new novel from Keith Ridgway, “one of Ireland’s best writers, in a country with no shortage of them” (The Times).
