The subject, however, is explosive. It concerns the battle of an exceptionally talented man with a damaged spirit for survival in a hostile universe. It dramatises the battle between the use of alcohol and violence as props and the search for love, however it can be found. In the end, Thomas Healy has written a deeply tender book, which is likely to become a classic of its kind."--Colm Tóibín, PRAISE FOR I HAVE HEARD YOU CALLING IN THE NIGHT "This book is everything Marley & Me is not: smart, acerbic, laconic, with nary an ounce of treacle dripping through Healy's muscular prose.
