Long lost books
I was reading this story on the bbc news website, about how the book, The Third Policeman is experiancing a boom in sales due to an episode of Lost, and it reminded me of a book I read of in another book... you following? (I read a book that referred to this book.) It was called The Trouble with the Irish (or the English Depending on your point of View) and I just thought it was an interesting title, plus it's written by someone with the name Wibberly and had all the intentions of tracking it down… but never did… UNTIL NOW!
SO in putting off my project I have discovered… it is out of print (to buy costs around $400 from the internet) and it seems only to reside in a few select university libraries, so boooo. I might find an old copy like McCarthy did…
