Review
This life-enhancing journey from poverty-stricken hardship to opulence is full of humour, resilience and generosity. A genuine feel-good read. (Daily Express)
This is a racy portrait of Catholic community solidarity and a family that refused to be ground down by poverty. (The Sunday Times)
a joy to read . . . he captures the living language of Dublin (Skytext)
Refreshing, unsentimental, honest, optimistic and wise; and funny, too. This voice out of Ireland is the best one for years. (Libby Purves)
The story of a Dubliner reflecting with stunning honesty on his city and his past. With characters that leap off the page, it combines blunt realism with the everyday humour of Northside Dublin life. An incredible book that will soon rank as a best-seller. (An Taoiseach Bertie Ahern TD)
Unashamedly feel-good . . . Cullen's story is an impressive one. (Publishing News)
. . . the perfect antidote to ANGELA'S ASHES . . . He captures the spirit of the place with a sharp eye for detail and a quick ear for dialogue (Home & Country)
Uplifting (Dorset Evening Echo)
A fascinating read, an absorbing and compelling human story. I felt I was part of the Cullen family as they struggled in the inner city slums of Dublin, yet one is left with an abiding sense of the human spirit's ability to survive and to triumph. As Molly Darcy said, "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, so make the most of today". This book is an inspiration. (Páidí Ó Sé.)
