Brian Keenan TURLOUGH First Edition Signed
First edition, first print hardback of TURLOUGH by Brian Keenan and published by Jonathan Cape in 2000. Signed by Keenan on the title page. Full numberline 2 4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3 1.
The book is in near fine condition (black cloth boards with gold lettering to spine) with only very light creasing to the top and bottom of the spine. The book is in a very good unclipped dust jacket that is slightly creased to the top and bottom of the spine and top edge of the back cover. Internally, the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.
While being held hostage by fundamentalist Shi'ite Militiamen in the suburbs of Beirut, Brian Keenan was visited and sustained by the presence of Turlough O'Carolan - the legendary blind harper of the seventeenth century. This novel is thus a re-creation of an extraordinary historical story and a personal debt repaid. It is also, obliquely, a parallel life - another life imprisoned, shaped by the dark.
