Description:
(London, BCA by arrangement with Secker & Warburg, 1994). 8vo; original maroon boards; laminated pictorial dustwrapper a little soiled; pp. (vi) + 282. Very good condition. "It is 1968. Patrick Clarke is ten. He loves George Best, Geronimo and the smell of his hot water bottle. He hates zoos, kissing and the boys from the Corporation houses. He can't stand his little brother. He wants to be a missionary like Father Damien. He coerces the McCarthy twins and Willy Hancock into playing lepers. He never picks the scabs off his knees before they're ready. . . . Witty and poignant, earthy and exuberant, Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha charts the triumphs, indignities and bewilderment of Patrick Clarke and his world, a place full of warmth, cruelty, love and slaps across the face." .

It is a story of incompetent generalship and heroic courage by the man who has been described as the latter-day Kipling. On the slope of Isandhlwana, in 1879, six companies of British infantry face the savage onslaught of 20,000 blood-crazed Zulus. Death is only seconds away, but they stand, as they had been taught to stand, and fight to the last round and the last man. This is the final, crimson curtain of a story which moves from rural Ireland to Fleet Street, to industrial Birmingham, and then to the heat-hazed veldt of Zululand, following the affairs of four men - a London war correspondent, an illiterate Irish fugitive from… Read More
