Histoire
Inspired by the Cervantes classic, Sam DuChamp, mediocre writer of spy thrillers, creates Quichotte, a courtly, addled salesman obsessed with television who falls in impossible love with a TV star. Together with his (imaginary) son Sancho, Quichotte sets off on a picaresque quest across America to prove worthy of her hand, gallantly braving the tragicomic perils of an age where “Anything-Can-Happen.” Meanwhile his creator, in a midlife crisis, has equally urgent challenges of his own.

Histoire
Shuggie’s mother Agnes walks a wayward path: She is Shuggie’s guiding light but a burden for him and his siblings. She dreams of a house with its own front door while she flicks through the pages of the Freemans catalogue, ordering a little happiness on credit, anything to brighten up her grey life. Married to a philandering taxi-driver husband, Agnes keeps her pride by looking good - her beehive, make-up, and pearly-white false teeth offer a glamourous image of a Glaswegian Elizabeth Taylor.

Description
In this unnamed city, to be interesting is dangerous. Middle sister, our protagonist, is busy attempting to keep her mother from discovering her maybe-boyfriend and to keep everyone in the dark about her encounter with Milkman. But when first brother-in-law sniffs out her struggle and rumours start to swell, middle sister becomes "interesting" - the last thing she ever wanted to be. To be interesting is to be noticed, and to be noticed is dangerous. Milkman is a tale of gossip and hearsay, silence and deliberate deafness. It is a story of inaction with enormous consequences.

Pointlessly entertaining.
There was a lot of jibber jabbering throughout the novel which is what makes the novel what it is although I was left wondering what the point was. It was funny and entertaining although I found this made it hard to keep my attention so you have to be in the right mood for it and it's not a book to listen to when you're tired!

Extraordinary writing and reading
I have not enjoyed a novel this much in a while. The story itself is interesting but it is the manner in which the author tells it that makes this novel so captivating. Very original writing indeed. We follow the narrative deep into the psychology and emotions of the characters and their interactions. The situations are at once stifling and absurd. At times I cringed, at others I laughed out loud, and I always felt I was right in there with the narrator, thanks to Ms Brennan’s remarkable reading performance.

Loved!
There was moments when I laughed out load and was on the edge of my seat.
The narrator delivered Anna’s writing so beautifully.
I did not mind the unnamed characters as the descriptions of the unnamed characters was humorous and compelling.

Fabulous. I loved it.
Quirky. Light and funny at the same time as being dark and politically insightful. I learned a lot about Northern Ireland through this novel and the associated googling that went with it. Brilliantly performed.

Interesting yet exhausting
The story line and characters are interesting. I enjoyed the insight into the life and minds of the Irish during such a violent time. I did find the reading tiresome though due to it’s constant run on sentencing. That being said, I realize that it most likely was intentional. Overall a unique writing and worth the effort.

Surprised!
I’ve read a lot of reviews about this book and wasn’t sure whether to go ahead and read it or not. I opted for the audio version and I loved the narration by Brid Brennan. It took me awhile to get into the book, almost abandoning it a few times, but so happy I stuck with it. I enjoyed the book and have recommended it to people who are prepared to give it a try. I agree with previous reviews stating you’re going to love it or you’re going to hate it. I’ve fallen on the love it side.
