Darach Ó Séaghdha's observations and reflections are intelligent and interesting * Irish Times *
Ó Séaghdha wasn't keen on learning traditional Irish language when he was youngInspired by his dad, he later made it his goal to help preserve it * The Big Issue *
A wonderful blend of rudeness and erudition * TLS Books of the Year *
I'd stray away from my beloved fiction for [Craic Baby] Darach O'Seaghdha's follow up to the brilliant Motherfoclóir * Irish Times Books of the Year *
Darach Ó Séaghdha has a gift for bringing Irish to life, through humour and through fascinating stories of why it is the way it is * Irish Daily Mirror *
In Craic Baby, Ó Séaghdha wants to address fundamental points about language in Ireland on a longish agenda. And he does it brilliantly * Irish Examiner *
Darach O'Séaghdha is the author of popular twitter account @theirishfor. He lives just outside Dublin, where he works as a civil servant during the day and explores language at night and in the early morning.
