Page edges are tanned, otherwise pages are clean and tidy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenry Smart is born into the Dublin slums at the beginning of the twentieth century, where poverty teaches him to survive long before he understands the forces shaping his life. His childhood on the streets develops into a restless young adulthood caught up in rebellion, love and the promise of a different Ireland. As Henry becomes a soldier and an increasingly useful participant in the independence struggle, personal hopes collide with the demands of men making history. Roddy Doyle gives his fictional hero a forceful, irreverent voice, combining humour and hardship in a story of reckless courage and its consequences. This opening volume of The Last Roundup follows a life lived close to the creation of modern Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68194713698516,"sku":"TVJ-035851","price":9.2,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-035851-1.jpg?v=1793241466","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/a-star-called-henry-doyle","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
