Ireland Unhinged: Encounters with a Wildly Changing Countrylooks back at the changes that the economic boon wreaked on the Irish countryside, and what the future holds for the country. Connecticut-born David Monagan explores his adopted country through the eyes of a passionate transplant. “What is Ireland? Has it lost its soul?” Monagan keeps asking as he roams from Cork to Dublin, Donegal, and Belfast. His answers are loving, searing, and often laugh-out-loud funny.
David Monaganis the authorJourney into the HeartandJaywalking with the Irish, which Frank McCourt praised as a hard, beautiful book about Ireland. His writings about Ireland have been featured inForbes Life, theGuardian, theLos Angeles Times, theMiami Herald, theSan Francisco Chronicle, theSunday Times, and many Irish newspapers and magazines.
