In a small town in Northern Ireland， in the troubling psychedelic-gone-wrong atmosphere of the late seventies， Joey Tallon embarks on a journey of selfhood， of redemption， and of rebirth. A man deranged by desire， and longing for belonging， with the words of T. S. Eliot as his guide -- "We shall not cease from exploration / And the end of all our exploring / Will be to arrive where we started / And know the place for the first time" -- Tallon searches for his "place of peace，" a spiritual landscape located somewhere between Ireland and Iowa， and maybe between heaven and hell.Following the delusional， but also ultimately likable， Tallon on his quest， we unwittingly enter a world constructed by a character who is arguably more lucid during his acid trips than when he s sober. What begins as a baffling mystery in McCabe s hands becomes a raucous and ribald adventure. From Tallon s punk rock beginnings， to his stewardship of his prison s literary society， to his brief tenure as director of the Youth in Action Creative Arts Awareness Scheme， and finally to his bull-like charge into the political arena， Joey s journey toward enlightenment and deliverance takes readers into the innermost heart of a man at odds with himself and the violent， sometimes surreal world around him.Hilarious， poignant， and unpredictable， Call Me the Breeze is a literary odyssey five years in the making. It is Patrick McCabe at his absolute best.
