Description
Roddy Doyle’s winning trio of comic novels depicting the daily life and times of the Rabbitte family in working-class Dublin.
The Commitments
Still one of the freshest and funniest rock ‘n’ roll novels ever written, Doyle’s first book portrays a group of aspiring musicians on a mission: to bring soul to Dublin.
The Snapper
Doyle’s sparkling second novel observes the progression of twenty-year-old Sharon’s pregnancy and its impact on the Rabbitte family – especially on her father, Jimmy Sr – with with, candor, and surprising authenticity.
The Van
Set during the heady days of Ireland’s brief, euphoric triumphs in the 1990 World Cup, this Booker Prize nominee is a tender and hilarious tale of male friendship, midlife crisis, and family life.
