A poignant, coming of age novel about an Irish gypsy boy's childhood in the 1950's from the author of AMERICAN DIRT.
A poignant and magical tale -- Keith Donohue
A deeply moving and elegiac look at a vanishing cultureTold in Christy's vernacular but often poetic first-person voice,THE OUTSIDE BOY is gorgeously written and an implicit celebration of Irish storytelling * Booklist *
Some of the greatness of Angela's Ashes dampens these pages, maybe as much as is possible for an author for whom this is fiction, not memoir. Beautifully crafted scenes and characters keep the pages turning * Historical Novel Society *
