No Laughing Matter: The Life and Times of Flann O'Brien
The first full-length biography of Brian O’Nolan, better known as Flann O’Brien, published in a new edition with a new introduction by Anthony Cronin.
A civil servant for many years, Flann O’Brien’s writing was at first published under pseudonyms. For most of his life, his fame was confined to Ireland and was based on the satirical column he wrote in The Irish Times as Myles na Gopaleen.
The man behind the work, however, is practically unknown. Cronin, who knew O’Nolan personally, delves deep into the private persona of an Irish legend. Rich in background, anecdote and social history, this perceptive volume gives a stunning description of a lost milieu.
