Breakfast with Anglo by Simon Kelly
Tells the story of Ireland's property boom and bust. This work presents an account of how it all worked and why it went sour. It brings us to the muddy fields, humble cafes and grand dining rooms where the deals were made. It explains how it was that debt always begat more debt, and takes us through the hitherto opaque portals of Anglo Irish Bank.
An indictment of a system that favoured short-term profits over business and banking fundamentalsKelly was a key part of that whole system and ... his book gives a worthy insight into the insanity that has crippled the country * Sunday Tribune *
We will probably never have a Celtic Tiger novel written by Ireland's answer to Tom Wolfe, but if we do it is a fair guess that he or she will turn to Breakfast with Anglo for inspiration * Irish Independent *
