In 2012, Roddy Doyle introduced us to two Dublin pub-dwellers, who chewed the fat, set the world to rights, and chased the ebb and flow of the year to the bottom of their pints. This collection includes almost a decade's worth of elections, referendums, births, deaths, football, financial crashes, pandemics, and philosophical questions of life, as told through Doyle's comic genius.
