Reviews

'It is very well written and has been rightly and critically acclaimed for the descriptiveness of Eoin's prose and for its historic detail. He tells the story of an egalitarian effort, led by pioneering architect Michael Scott, to create a building, uniquely Irish, utilitarian yet uplifting...He draws on the creativity and photographic skills of Mal McCann to take us through Busaras as it is today. I have long admired Mal's photos. He has an eye for the common place, the quirky angle, and the beauty of everyday things. His use of light is ingenious.' -- Gerry Adams * The Irish Echo *
