Stopgap Grace

Rate this book
Proof that the sublime and absurd sometimes switch jobs. All sacred words get used and every recklessness sanctified. No sooner has night `slid its burlap sack over our heads' than we are given `alibis for something that / never happened.' McCarthy's voice is the one we want when we're running low on grace.-Brendan Constantine. Neil McCarthy grew up in West Cork in the eighties. He graduated from NUIG, and began travelling and writing poetry soon after.

Probably one of Irelands finest writers I've read. This unique voice on page, speeds along with a masterful control of the English language. Loved this book so much.
