Description
by Terry Eagleton (Author)
If you're looking for a field guide to leprechauns, The Truth About the Irish is not the book for you.

Covering all things Irish from Blarney to Yeats, renowned literary and cultural critic Terry Eagleton separates the myths from the reality with his priceless blend of sidesplitting humor, caustic commentary, and the honest lowdown on the beloved and bewildering country of Ireland.
