Synopsis

“Stephens was my Dante into dark and dangerous places that native Irish writers never knew.”
Frank McCourt, author of Angela’s Ashes

“Ah, it’s M. G. Stephens on the prowl again, walking the nocturnal beat of the human condition. He is Bogart as poet: a man orders a shot of whiskey and sees the blue stars of eternity.”
Thomas McCarthy
