Notes
John Boland takes Poolbeg to task for the plethora of new novels, and
ridicules the authors’ blurbs on the covers; recounts how Mary McCarthy,
45, writes the gloom out of her novel at the behest of the editor Kate
Cruise O’Brien, and ponders what would have happened to McGahern,
Banville, et al., at the same hands; admits to not having read the new
titles. (The Irish Times, 15 June 1996, ‘Weekend’, p.8).
