{"product_id":"paddy-chris-curran-paperback","title":"Paddy -- Chris Curran, Paperback","description":"PADDY Do we ever know what s really going on in someone s head? Based on true events and set in the early 2000s, Paddy is a story about a young man from The Liberties in Dublin suffering with poor mental health, who travels to Amsterdam with his drug-dealing best friend and his anti-drugs activist brother. The consequences of the journey are life-changing for them all. The Liberties Trilogy is a series of stories about the values of characters who grew up in the heart of inner-city Dublin in the 1980s against the backdrop of high unemployment, a heroin epidemic, political corruption, an over-influential church, the Troubles and HIV\/AIDS crisis. PRAISE FOR PADDY: Paddy is a remarkable insight into the social narrative of the time, charmingly walking the double-edged sword of great personal conflict and the Irish sense of humour. my sister-in-law If this book had been written in the eighties, it would have been banned. my friend Every parent should read this. - my sister A whirlwind of emotions. - my other sister It s very raunchy, Christopher. my 78-year-old aunt It made me cry. my other half\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Curran\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Austin Macauley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781035861170","brand":"Chris Curran","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46479029108964,"sku":"9781035861170","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/9781035861170.jpg?v=1752288008","url":"https:\/\/bookandmortar.com\/products\/paddy-chris-curran-paperback","provider":"BookandMortar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
