His torments are surreal but no less frightening than the awful truth. When Oliver Cromwell turns up, the hapless buffoon can't cope. This Cromwell is a cocky tyrant who wants to run a football team, or start a taxi business. Enter the Belly, the IRA, an Irish giant, and Billy of the Boyne: 'William of Orange is polishing pianos \/ In convents and other delicate territories, \/ His nose purple from sipping turpentine.' Kennelly's \u003cem\u003eCromwell\u003c\/em\u003e delighted and scandalised readers in Ireland when it was first published in 1983. This extraordinary, extravagantly Irish act of revenge has retained its power to shock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.47 x 8.12 x 5.94 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 25, 1987\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42730078175295,"sku":"9781852240264","price":20.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/b09cf78f84b08e95deecac98e1cdcb32.webp?v=1765124733","url":"https:\/\/dhl-adrianne.myshopify.com\/products\/cromwell-paperback-1","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
