5.0�toiles sur 5 EXTRAORDINARY READING AND STORY, F�v 19 2004

Par	Gail Cooke (TX, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Star Called Henry (Audio Cassette)

This extraordinarily rich tale of young Henry Smart, from his birth in 1901 to age 20, is made even richer by the lyric reading of Roddy Doyle.

Henry, son of a one-legged bouncer and hit-man, is the couple's third child and the first to live through infancy. He suffers the quintessential poverty-stricken Irish childhood described rather frequently in current fiction, but he is also a "star" in his mother's eyes.

Forsaken by his father before his double digit year, young Henry is on his own and on the streets. Yet he contains such a zest for life and is imbued with so strong a heart that he becomes one of the more endearing protagonists in recent years.

5.0�toiles sur 5 Passionate Revolution, F�v 26 2002

Par	Cat Lyons (San Fransisco, CA, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

"Brawling and lyrical...In everychapter Doyle mixes high, historical romance with low, earthy humor...Doyle vividly portrays the wild passions of an Irish Everyman...[and] the birth of the modern Irish nation." This review from Time magazine sums up what an incredible book this is.
It will keep you at the edge of your seat. Keeping you interested, and the amazingly describes in such fine detail. The war comes alive in your mind while you read, and Henry Smart shows how hard it is to be key role in the revolution which brought Ireland to wear it is today.
...Henry is the type of guy your mother warns you about, he is the stunning, witty, handsome boy next door, that all the girls are in love with, the motorcylce rebel outside your school, he speaks of his passion for sex, adventure, intimacy, women and killing.
If you love ecstacy, excitement, adventure, and intimacy in you books you will love :A Star Called Henry".
