Politicians and Other Animals.
Author: O’LEARY, Olivia.
Dublin: O’Brien Press, 2004. 159 pages. Paperback.
Colourful and irreverent, Politicians and Other Animals is a collection of thumbnail sketches of Irish life and politics, originally broadcast on RTE Radio One’s `Five Seven Live’. It takes a wry look at leading politicians, at great occasions and at the changing values and mores of Ireland of the boom. Here you’ll find anecdotes and profiles of the Taoiseach, of ministers, of party leaders and of the rich cast of characters who tread the parliamentary stage. You’ll find the Punch and Judy slapstick of election campaigns when voters hurl abuse and politicians have to grin and bear it, and you’ll find the new Irish - how they look and how they sound - alongside those the new Ireland has forgotten.
