The Barrytown Trilogy: The Commitments, the Snapper, the Van

ANNOTATION

The bestselling author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha presents a one-volume edition of his celebrated trio of novels. Doyle's comic novels, The Commitments, The Snapper and The Van, depict the daily life and times of the Rabbitte family in working-class Dublin.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

There was Joyce's Dublin and now there's Roddy Doyle's: wholly contemporary, extremely funny, and wonderfully and energetically delinquent. Irresistible to the modern spirit.
 — Fay Weldon

Roddy Doyle has captured the real spirit of Dublin—quick—witted, sharp, and inventive. His characters are drawn with great affection and love, and stay in the mind long after you have laughed your head off at the brilliant dialogue.
 — Colm Toibin
