The Last of the Irish Males - Brossura

'The final chapter is the book's tour de force... Abandoning comedy, the author reverts to straightforward autobiographical mode, recalling his parents' break-up when he was 13 and the problems it caused him subsequently. Problems which reached a happy crisis with his wife in a maternity clinic recently when, rendered speechless, he first heard the sound of his son's heartbeat. This could be cliched, but it isn't. O'Connor was so moved by the experience, and describes it so beautifully, it is impossible not to be moved with him' Irish Times
