The Devil's Diary Summary

The Devil's Diary by Patrick McGinley

Idealistic love and death, sibling rivalry and obsessive lust are themes familiar to McGinley's work, focusing here on Arty Brennan, who built factories, a supermarket and a noisy motel, trading a spiritually enriching culture for a hippiedrome of second-rate 20th century glitter.
