A Brilliant St Patrick's Day

Enjoyed reading the short story Brilliant by Roddy Doyle today. It came about because of Dublin’s UNESCO City of Literature designation and the decision by the St. Patrick’s Festival Parade to specially commission a short story by Roddy.

It is a story for our times causing you to smile at the response Doyle comes up with to banish the recession blues that grip Dublin and Ireland.

it doesn't take long to read and is available here as a PDF
