A Soldier's Song Donall Mac Amhlaigh

It has the privacy and immediacy of a diary but holds the interest like a novel.

A lost treasure of Irish writing translated for the first time into English.

A Soldier's Song Avis

Mac Amhlaigh sought to record every pub and dancehall, every sunset, stone wall and rainbow in his mind, to pack the city in his suitcase so that she remained with him forever, so he could all at once hear her lost voice everywhere. Colum McCann; Micheal O hAodha has done the literary world a huge service by translating Donall Mac Amhlaigh's work into English. Gillian Mawson; a work that exudes authenticity and immediacy. Liam Harte

À propos de Donall Mac Amhlaigh

Donall Mac Amhlaigh (1926-1989) was one of the most important Irish-language writers of the 20th century. A native of County Galway, he is best known for his novels and short stories concerning the lives of the more than half-a-million Irish people who left Ireland for post-war Britain. A prolific journalist and a committed socialist in the Christian Socialist tradition, Mac Amhlaigh, whose diaries and notebooks are held in the National Library of Ireland, was a member of the Connolly Association in Northampton and contributed regularly to newspapers such as the Irish Press and a range of journals on both sides of the water throughout the 1970s and 1980s often providing the perspectives of the Irish in Britain on issues such as class, economy, emigrant life in England, the conflict in Northern Ireland and civil rights-related issues.
