Irish Wit Summary

From some of the most celebrated figures of the Emerald Isle - James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, Dave Allen and Ardal O'Hanlon amongst others - this book brings together a collection of wit, humour and Irish wisdom that may at times seem confusing to the poor, ignorant Englishman ...but is always profound.

Irish Wit Reviews

"I'm an atheist, thank God." Dave Allen "You know it is summer in Ireland when the rain gets warmer." Hal Roach "There are over 30 words in the Irish language which are the equivalent to the Spanish 'manana'. But somehow none of them conveys the same sense of urgency." Patrick Kavanagh
