Set in Ireland in the 1970s, "Breakfast on Pluto" follows the exploits of Patrick "Pussy" Braden, an endearg but deceptively tough young man. Abandoned as a baby in his small Irish hometown and aware from a very early age that he is different, Patrick survives this harsh environment with the aid of his wit, charm and a sweet refusal to let anyone or anything change who he is.This is a surreal and magical tale, a funny, moving and poignant rites of passage novel. It is also a vivid and unsettling comment on the human price paid in the cultural and political climate of Ireland at that tm.
'Wild, hilarious, merciless and fiendishly clever'
- "Independent on Sunday".
'He is the fortunate possessor of a savage and unfettered imagination; his books ...dissect life's miseries with a gleaming comedic scalpel'
- "The Times".
'It finds humour in places that other writers are afraid to look for it'
- "Sunday Telegraph".
'This is a savagely funny and authentically tragic novel of an Ireland in unhappy transition and beneath McCabe's perfectly delivered black comedy lies an angry heart'
