BooksWe love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

Had a kind of timeless feel to it, didn't it? Could nearly have been about any emigrant looking for work even today.
I'm just staring at my shelf now and I also have to endorse Flann O'Briens The Dalkey Archive. One of his lesser known books and it shares characters with some of his other novels but a really good read. Synopsis here, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dalkey_Archive
