Cake by Shane Curran
In an age when sportsmen have perfected the art of saying nothing and suppressing any trace of personality, Shane 'Cake' Curran is a beacon of light: passionate, outspoken, utterly himself. This book tells the story of an Irish sportsman who has lived the dream in his own utterly distinctive way.
Richly entertaining * Irish Times *
One of the best GAA autobiographies of the last five years * Irish Examiner *
A natural storyteller.. the stories are raw and largely uncut, including the time he produced a bag of his own blood in the dressing room as part of a pre-match speech * Sunday Times *
It's hilarious, honest and brave, but best of all it's a damned good book. * hoganstand.com *
On the pitch and off it, many would say that the man from Castlerea is a unique prospect. As for the rest? Let them eat Cake. * RTE Guide *
