The Road to Dungannon

Journeys in Literary Ireland
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, flavoured 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.
