I'm thinking of plunging into this. I am wondering if anyone has opinions about this book, or any of Mac Mathúna's stories (positive or negative). This won't really sway my view, I'm just interested to see what people here think of this work, his work in general, and his Irish. I became interested in this through Raidió na Life's Linte Life audio bit on him:
