My new novel. It starts with the award-winning, BBC broadcast prologue, "The Orphan and the Mob", and continues with Jude's quest for True Love in Tipperary, Galway, the Aran Islands, and Dublin... Love, death, arson, philosophy, and sex. Starring Jude, an orphan who looks the spit of Leonardo DiCaprio. Except for having two penises. Which makes True Love... complicated.

Jeeeeez, I never answered this did I? Scandalous. Sorry Noel. And thanks for the Silverberg. (Nightwings was a favourite of mine...)
Yes, whatever did happen to Aogán Mulcahy? Such a nice guy, and very interesting with it. Strong , charismatic personality, peculiarly and pleasantly pre-Christian somehow. If we still had High Kings he'd have been one. (Hang on and I'll Google him.)
Hah! He's a Senior Lecturer in the School of Sociology in UCD. Specialises in policing. How it shapes the environment, and how the environment shapes it. Lots of work in Northern Ireland. Here we go:

I still think he should be a High King. Not of all Ireland, I think he'd find that a bit too much responsibility, and he'd find it hard to get to know everybody personally. But maybe Kerry, say.

You probably don't remember me but I did Arts in Galway starting in '84. Left after 2 years. Used to hang around with a guy called Sean Summers (who I haven't seen since). I remember we discussed Robert Silverberg one day - I gave you one of his books (was it TIME OF CHANGES? I can't remember). Another time there was a tutorial on the concourse - on the concourse! - concerning REPENT HARLEQUIN, SAID THE TICKTOCK MAN, of all things. The only person I sort of met since those heady days was Mike McHugh, but would love to know what became of people like Aoghan Mulcahy and all the rest of that class...Loved JUDE, by the way...
