Borderlines —3 long, hilarious and heart wrenching stories, written in cinematic prose. We see the real Ireland and the Irish: funny, zany, complicated, love-crazy and always entertaining.
Carnival Cop gets officious when a raggle-taggle roadshow comes to a remote town.
Bonzo is a local mystery man who everyone loves, but few know much about.
One for the Rover is a tale of free spirits: Irish music in the slow lane, gurus from the East and lovers from the West.
Novelist Willy Vlautin says: “Eddie Stack has a way of making you laugh and cry at the same time...a great Irish storyteller.”
