Product Description
John Ryan was born in 1925 in Dublin, with Tipperary roots, and was deeply involved in the immediate postwar literary scene in the city. He was involved in founding the magazine Envoy and editing The Dublin Magazine, and he moved in the small but important literary world in Dublin in the late 1940's and 1950's - as writers like Behan, J.P Donleavy, Patrick Kavanagh , Flann O'Brien were finding their literary voice.
First published in 1975 by Gill & Macmillan, this is a Lilliput Press reprint,with sections of b&w photographs, and accounts of nightlife in literary pubs like The Bailey.
Edgewear to covers, otherwise unmarked. An 'as new' copy we purchased as stock from a former bookshop, so unread but with light shelfwear.
