内容简介

"I preferred magnifying glasses to matches ... You had more control with a magnifying glass."

Paddy Clarke is ten years old. He likes torturing his brother, pouring salt on slugs and lighting fires.

Paddy knows that the life expectancy of a mouse is eighteen months and that Geronimo was the last of the renegade Apaches. He also knows that his mother cries, what the smacking sound means, and that Da leaves the house in silence, but he doesn't know why.

作者简介

Roddy Doyle was the first Irish author to win the Booer Prize. He is described as modest and unassuming, and sees himself as a political writer.

"I don't actually force the issue because I write about Irish, urban characters and they drag the politics behind them, not the other way around. "

Roddy Doyle
