Seller's Description:
As New in As New jacket. Book Cloth. AS New/ AS New. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. The story goes that Jamie O'Neill spent ten years working at such jobs as hospital night porter so he could write and polish this, his first book. It then took less than a week for the publisher to read it and sign contracts giving O'Neill a six-figure advance. Now it has won a Lambda Literary Award. Set in Dublin and its near surrounds, At Swim, Two Boys traces the year leading up to Easter 1916 and Ireland's brave but fractured uprising against British rule. At its core it tells of the love between two boys: Jim, a naive and reticent scholar-whose shopkeeper father Mr. Mack always believes his family to be on the verge of success-and Doyler, the rough diamond son of Mr. Mack's old army pal. Doyler might once have made a scholar like Jim if his family had any money-instead he's the hauler of the parish midden cart, with socialism and revolution and willful blasphemy stuffed under his cocksure cap. The boys make a pact: that Doyler will teach Jim to swim, and in a year hence, Easter 1916, they will swim the bay to the distant beacon of the Muglins rock and raise a flag to claim that island for their country, and for themselves. As Ireland sets forth towards her uncertain glory there unfolds a love story of the utmost tenderness, carrying the reader through the turbulence of the times like a full-blown sail.
