A Sort Of Homecoming

[yertle-the-turtle]

Well I was at a library sale a couple of weeks ago and I purchased this book called A Sort Of Homecoming by some Irish writer, Robert something. Seeing as I take months to finish books (and that I have loads of others to get through, like my maiden attempts to try and read "classics" like Jane Austen and James Joyce), I haven't picked it up yet, but according to the blurb, it's about growing up in Ireland. It opens with a quote from Zooropa (the song). Anyone else read it?
