    Description
    “When my parents signed me up to Trojan Swimming Club, they had no idea of the evil behind Gibney’s interest in me. As a thirteen-year-old, who knew nothing but kindness and love, I was ill-equipped to understand what was happening as he insidiously dominated my thinking and isolated me from anyone who might come between us. The process of entrapment was quick, and in full view of my family and team-mates I became a prisoner – bullied, manipulated and abused, unnoticed by those close to me.

  • The Monk

    €8.00
    Description
    On the streets of the tough Dublin inner-city neighbourhood where he grew up, Gerry Hutch was perceived as an ordinary decent criminal, a quintessential Robin Hood figure who fought the law – and won. To the rest of the world he was an elusive criminal godfather called the Monk: an enigmatic criminal mastermind and the hunted leader of one side in the deadliest gangland feud in Irish criminal history. The latest book from Ireland’s leading crime writer Paul Williams reveals the inside story of Hutch’s war with former allies the Kinahan cartel, and how the once untouchable crime boss became a fugitive on the run from the law and the mob – with a ?1 million bounty on his head.

    The Monk is an enthralling account of the rise and fall of a modern-day gangster, charting the violent journey of an impoverished kid from the ghetto to the top tier of gangland – until it all went wrong.

  • Coraline

    Coraline

    €9.95

    “Sometimes funny, always creepy, genuinely moving, this marvellous spine-chiller will appeal to readers from nine to ninety.” – “Books for Keeps”. “I was looking forward to “Coraline”, and I wasn’t disappointed. In fact, I was enthralled.

    This is a marvellously strange and scary book.” – Philip Pullman, “Guardian”. “If any writer can get the guys to read about the girls, it should be Neil Gaiman. His new novel “Coraline” is a dreamlike adventure.

    For all its gripping nightmare imagery, this is actually a conventional fairy story with a moral.” – “Daily Telegraph”. Stephen King once called Neil Gaiman ‘a treasure-house of stories’ and, in this wonderful novel, which has been likened to both “Alice in Wonderland” and the “Narnia Chronicles”, we get to see Neil at his storytelling best.

  • MOBY DICK

    MOBY DICK

    €5.00

    Moby Dick is the story of Captain Ahab’s quest to avenge the whale that ‘reaped’ his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic. But it is also a hymn to democracy.

    Bent as the crew is on Ahab’s appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each. Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel’s narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing.
