Smile

Just moved in to a new apartment, alone for the first time in years, Victor Forde goes every evening to Donnelly's pub for a pint, a slow one. One evening, Victor's drink is interrupted by a man from his past, who brings unwelcome memories of his school years being taught by the Christian Brothers. Memories that he cannot control and which eventually threaten to destroy his sanity. A major new novel from the Booker Prize-winner Roddy Doyle.
