Paperback. Paperback, beige spine. 224pp. Ballybawn is a hilarious novel set in a country village in Ireland in the middle of the 20th century. When the local Garda Sergeant is forced to take his subordinate on a sabbatical to Lourdes the pubs are left un-monitored. With no closing time the locals, of course, take full advantage and all hell breaks loose. Earthy and original, its muscular prose style conveys a rumbustuous humor.
