It follows on from Drink to the Bird, Kiely's first volume of autobiography, which dealt with his boyhood and young manhood between the world wars." "Starting in 1941 - and working his way to the present - Kiely recalls his arrival in Dublin and introduces us to the many people who shade his narrative. Kiely's recollections trace the path of his career as a Dublin journalist and, later, a serious prose writer. The memoir includes deft portraits and lyrical homages to such notable writers as W. B. Yeats, James Joyce, Brendan Behan, Patrick Kavanaugh and a host of others. Kiely's vivid evocation of people, places and events demonstrates how a great city, bustling with culture and literature, shaped his many-faceted career."--BOOK JACKET.
