Now entering his sixty-seventh year, Chris Mc Cool can confidently call himself a member of the Happy Club: he has an attractive & exceedingly accommodating Croatian girlfriend & has been told he bears more than a passing resemblance to Roger Moore. As he looks back on the glory days of his youth, he recalls the swinging sixties of rural Ireland: a decade in which the cool cats sang along to Lulu & drove around in Ford Cortinas, when swinging meant wearing velvet trousers & shirts with frills, & where Dolores Mc Causland
- Dolly Mixtures to those who knew her best
- danced on the tops of tables & set the pulses of every man in small-town Cullymore racing. Chris Mc Cool had it all back then. He had the moves, he had the car, & he had Dolly, a woman who purred suggestive songs & tugged gently at her skin-tight dresses, a Protestant femme fatale who was glamorous, transgressive & who called him her very own ' Mr Wonderful'. She was, in short, the answer to this bastard son of a Catholic farmer's prayers. Except that there was another Mr Wonderful in town, a certain Marcus Otoyo
- a young Nigerian with glossy curls & a dazzling devoutness that was all but irresistible. Although Chris, of course, was interested in Marcus only because of their shared religious fervour & mutual appreciation of the finer things. That was all. Besides, Mr Mc Cool was always a hopeless romantic
- some even described him as excessively so
- but is there anything wrong with that? Spiked with macabre humour & disquieting revelations, The Holy City is a brilliant, disturbing & compelling novel from one of Ireland's most original contemporary writers.
