Kick by Richard Murphy
In The Kick, poet Richard Murphy has constructed, from astonishingly detailed diaries kept across the course of five decades, a unique memoir of his life and times. 'Murphy's book contains the high class literary journal and the semi-private memoir a lively and even brave account of a rich and complicated life.' The Irish Times
