Sinopsis
In the sequel to award-winning playwright Seamus ORourkes popular first memoir, Standing in Gaps, this innocent Leitrim lad finally flees the nest, briefly sampling life in New York, Dublin and London, before inevitably returning to his beloved, duller-than-dishwater home, to a life which now includes alcohol, Dr. Hook and some low-budget romance.
But man does not live on romance alone and Seamus needs to get to the bottom of his general uselessness, spurred on as always by his ever-the-realist father, who prophesied his mediocrity from an early age. Seamus continues to underachieve whilst struggling to interpret his Auld Lads advice and watered down compliments – You werent as bad as I often saw ya, They must be badly stuck, if they asked you and the classic What kind of an eejit are ya? – in a memoir that captures the innocence and the absurdity of rural life in 1980s and 1990s Ireland.
