Here is a brand new compilation - with an Irish twist. From some of the most celebrated figures of the Emerald Isle - Samuel Beckett, Dave Allen and Ardal O'Hanlon amongst others - this book brings together a collection of wit, humour and Irish wisdom that may at times seem confusing to the poor, ignorant foreigner, but is always profound. 'I'm an atheist, thank God'-Dave Allen 'You know it is summer in Ireland when the rain gets warmer'-Hal Roach 'There are over thirty words in the Irish language which are equivalent to the Spanish manana. But somehow none of them conveys the same sense of urgency'-Patrick Kavanagh
