Roddy Doyle's A Star Called Henry / Oh, Play That Thing

With his sharp-edged wit, Roddy Doyle introduced Henry Smart--adventurer, IRA assassin, and lover. At once an epic and a prophetic portrait of Irish history, both past and present, A Star Called Henry is a tour de force.

In the just released sequel, Oh, Play That Thing, Henry makes his way across America, teeming with surprises. It is both a saga unto itself—full of epic adventures, and a magnificent follow-up to A Star Called Henry.
