Irish Eccentrics

Aubrey Malone

Did you know that Brendan Behan once taught his cat to do an IRA salute? Or that he went into town one day to buy an electric toaster and came home with a pub instead? Or that Gerry Adams kept the ring pull of a hand grenade thrown at him so he could use it to hang keys off? Were you aware that Samuel Beckett refused interviews because he had "no views to inter"? Or that Ed Byrne is so pessimistic he even doubts the pessimism of other pessimists? These and hundreds of other nuggets of information are contained in this sequel to Aubrey Malone's "Daft as a Brush," also published by Penniless Press.
