Product Description
"The Best of Myles" brings together the best of Flann O'Brien's newspaper column "Cruiskeen Lawn," written over a nearly thirty-year period. Covering such subjects as plumbers, the justice system, and improbable inventions, O'Brien (whose real name was Brian O'Nolan, though his newspaper pseudonym was Myles na Gopaleen) is replete with zany humor and biting satire about the Irish and our preoccupations. Most of all, however, "The Best of Myles" displays O'Brien's unique mastery of language and style.
This is the Picador edition, with cover art by Ralph Steadman. 400 pages, tanning to page block, 1978, originally published in the UK in 1968.
