Mick Donnellan is a novelist, playwright and screenwriter. His fiction has won numerous awards and his plays are regularly adapted for the national and international screen.
The Dead Soup, Mick Donnellan's fifth work work of fiction,is a collection of award-winning short stories. Centred around tragic tales and character driven moments, we are presented with a collection of unforgettable writing that will, at times, leave the reader heartbroken and others, laughing out loud. Set primarily between the west of Ireland and the midlands, the stories revolve around a myriad of themes including alcoholic guards, dystopian futures and plenty of scam artists and down and outs.
- True to his signature style, Donnellan keeps the locations local with incisive observations around well-known haunts such as Ballinrobe, Galway city and Athlone.With razor sharp dialogue, and a keen eye for the quirk of the Irish character, there is plenty to digest in this eclectic mix of stylistic fiction. Touching on issues of addiction, racism and social inequality, Donnellan illuminates the ironic edge of the modern personality, always exploring the grey areas of what's right and wrong, in an ever evolving world of dying morality with no substitute – except for the variable instincts of human nature and commercial worship.
