The Black Shore - Joseph O'Neill - Bog

Michael Malia's The Black Shore is actually the final novel of Irish writer and civil servant Joseph O'Neill. It points to the fact that his previous novels were carefully crafted metaphors for the bitter contempt in which he regarded his fellow countrymen, their culture, values, and religion. Thus, The Black Shore serves the purpose of bringing all O'Neill's works together and casting them in an altogether different light than previous criticism. Illustrated.
