Synopsis
Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha (1993) is a novel by Irish writer Roddy Doyle. It won the Booker Prize in 1993. The story is about a 10 year old boy and events that happen within his age group. He also has to cope with his parents' deteriorating relationship. The novel is known for its interesting use of language – Doyle uses a register that gives the reader the vivid impression of listening to the memories of a ten-year-old Irish boy from the 1960s.
