Flannsday

Erinesque, Book 1

By: Mark Will, G. J. Villa

Narrated by: Gary Bennett, Gary J. Chambers

Flannsday is the first novelette in the Erinesque series by Mark Will and G.J. Villa. Here we meet Martin Wells and J.G. Vara on day one of their quixotic "literary wank" across Ireland.

June 14, 2013. Wells and Vara have arrived in Dublin from opposite sides of the globe to celebrate James Joyce, their “original literary superhero”, during the annual Bloomsday festivities. But Bloomsday is still two days away, and in the meantime Wells has insisted that Irish satirist Flann O’Brien, one of the founders of Bloomsday, be honored with a day of his own.

Follow Wells and Vara as the events of this day - and night - take them from Parnell Square to Grogan’s Castle Lounge, from a discotheque on Dawson Street to Sweeney’s Bar, then back to the Northside for a truly climactic ending (at least for one of them). Flannsday is certain to amuse, bewilder, and delight the general reader as well as connoisseurs of Joyce, O’Brien, and the Irish literary tradition.
