Chasing after a family secret--a curious silence surrounding a long-lost ancestor--led the author on a pilgrimage through the landscape, history and literature of Ireland. His journey of self-discovery, flavored by poems, stories, lore and legend, reflects his idea that literature may be the key that explains the past and reveals the present. Serving as part memoir and part journalistic chronicle, this work offers a unique look at how memory, literature and travel shape one's definition of oneself. Also serving as a love letter to Ireland with chapters on native born authors such as James Joyce, Frank O'Connor, Seamus Heaney and more, this book explores the deeper influences of what makes a man a writer, scholar, adventurer, husband and father.
As an Irishman, Keane brings an informed but somewhat detached eye to Britain today. In this book he asks particularly whether the expectations of 1945 have been achieved, and where does the country stand as it enters the millennium.
Since the 1950s , the decline and decay of society can be linked to one thing and one thing alone. We have kicked God out of a majority of our institutions. Lands of authoritarian totalitarianism have-been all but lost for many moons. This stance against God has culminated in the legalization of sodomy and child sacrifice. This book studies the ways in which citizens of the world can attempt to adapt and adjust their perspective, all while calmly understanding why the world is no longer what it once was. This involves overcoming all obstacles thrown our way which includes tantalizing opportunities we may come across, external influences from the people in our lives and government propaganda. Through the witnessing of history, this book’s content adopts a realistic view at the Middle East problem, the most prominent enigma of all our lives. In this realistic view, we hopefully break down what is at the center of all intractable problems, the situation regarding faith. For this book takes a logical approach to that situation in the hopes of plausibly bringing about an agreement with truth.
