Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and sharp-cornered. Physical description; 336 p. ; 20 cm. Summary; James Mangan, discarded husband and failed poet, stumbles on a photograph of an Irish ancestor who was also a poet and bears a close physical resemblance to him. Fired by the coincidence, James sets off for Ireland - but for what? The author's successes include the W.H. Smith Literary Award. Subjects; English fiction. Modern fiction. Fiction / General.
