To touch the heart of Dublin and the country beyond, look to James Joyce's "Dubliners," the poetry of Yeats and a comic masterpiece by Flann O'Brien.
  • Good aul' Myles!

    No writer in this world has had me laughing as hard or as loud as Flann O'Brien. "The Poor Mouth" is brilliant, but the best of all are his collected "Cruiskeen Lawn" columns from the Irish Times which he wrote under the name Myles na gCopaleen (also published by the Dalkey Press.)

    I would also recommend Nuala ni Dhomnaill's poems, for a womanly perspective.
