Classic o Carroll Kelly. Best installment in recent years. Jun 12, ClaireMoyno rated Game of Throw-Ins it was amazing. Paul Howard gets it right everytime. Laugh out loud funny. Satirical take on all things Irish, cleverly mixed with current cultural nuances, tongue in cheek humour and a sharp, witty, unabashed and brazen main character. You find yourself rooting for Rosser despite his lying, cheating, scheming and egotistic ways. A hilarious and refreshing read. Ross O'Carroll-Kelly is an absolute arse. Glad I don't know anyone like him. Fun read. Dec 31, Marian Wilder rated it it was amazing Shelves: humorous. As per usual, I am sore from laughing. Jul 25, Game of Throw-Ins Cleary rated it really liked it Shelves: rossto-buy. I really enjoy this book. I love the connection between Ross and his daughter and then Ross and his dad. Some lovely surprises and really really enjoyed the book. Always a great twist once you think Ross is out of Game of Throw-Ins. That's me calling it! Another un-put-downable, if that's an actual word, episode in the life of The Rossmeister, his family, and friends. As usual, our hero finds himself in a few sticky situations, and Ross being Ross, deals with things in his own way. Enjoyable enough was tough reading some of the phonetically written parts supposed to mimic accents and I am from Northern Ireland! Jan 04, Mark Kenny rated it it was amazing. Usual RO'CK adventures - easy reading and the mind switches off. Jan 08, Barry Dorgan rated it really liked it. Sep 04, Mary rated it liked it. I just didn't get some of the storylines, and there wasn't as neat a conclusion as other books. Feb 04, Miss Eilis rated it it was amazing. Really enjoyed this latest Ross book. As usual I sometimes read with my fingers half covering my eyes cringing on his many mishaps! So current and a great reflection of D4 Ireland. This series should be categorised as historical or political fiction! Jan 16, Laura added it. Nice to see the Rossmeister General back on the rugby Game of Throw-Ins Nov 19, Oleksandr rated it liked it. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. Typical Ross. Last chapter was full of completely unrealistic ways to save Ross. I got the idea, that he can't suffer from middle age crisis, but still Not as Good as usual Its a good read but not as funny as Hus usual books. I think he tried to hard with this. Jan 15, Ginine rated it really liked it. Not as many moments that make you cringe so much you have to put the book down for a minute but plenty of great one liners and more rugby jokes. Great read as usual!

  • Maleness/Femaleness – the ‘Pharmatic’ Status of Paul Howard, A.K.A Ross O’Carroll-Kelly’S Work
    Otherness: Essays and Studies 2.2 Maleness/Femaleness – The ‘Pharmatic’ Status of Paul Howard, a.k.a Ross O’Carroll-Kelly’s Work Clare Gorman It can be argued that the binary opposition maleness/femaleness read against the texts of Paul Howard, a.k.a Ross O‟Carroll-Kelly, constructs the female as „other‟; as somewhat deviant to the concept of maleness, which serves as the transcendental signifier. This paper is driven by the hierarchical opposition, maleness/femaleness, and how, by the concept of patriarchy, the opposition is hierarchically valorised. Simone de Beauvoir articulates this idea in The Second Sex, when she speaks of women as „other‟, noting that when a woman „tries to define herself, she starts by saying, “I am a woman”: no man would do so‟, and this displays the basic „asymmetry between the terms “masculine” and “feminine”: man define the human, not woman‟ (de Beauvoir 1949, xxxi). The cultural privileging of the male over the female, of the rational over the emotional, of the serious over the frivolous, the reflective over the spontaneous, essentially the self over the other, will be examined here through the texts of Howard. Indeed, it is the character of Ross, Howard‟s main protagonist, and his casual misogyny snobbery, elitism and all round obnoxiousness towards women, which embodies what feminists believe to be the basic structure of culture – women being subject to an androcentric worldview. Howard‟s text when read through the lens of this opposition articulates the notion of phallocentrism – the idea of „male firstness‟ (Derrida 1982, 445). This paper will argue that within the texts of Howard there is a phallocentric construction of woman as „other‟ and by introducing Jacques Derrida‟s concept of „undecidability‟, the idea of otherness can 1 Otherness: Essays and Studies 2.2 be dismantled, essentially blurring the boundaries between the binary opposition maleness/femaleness, so that the boundary that constructs a sense of otherness becomes fluid and ambiguous.

  • 'Tendency-Wit: the Cultural Unconscious of the Celtic Tiger In
    ‘Tendency-Wit: The Cultural Unconscious of the Celtic Tiger in the Writings of Paul Howard Books, education, learning, these things have their place in the life of young men, of course. But not in yours. Because you are an élite … Many of you will go on to play rugby for clubs and form new alliances. A good number of you will meet a fellow at your new club who will get you a highly paid, yet unfulfilling, job that requires you to wear a suit – perhaps in a bank or some other such financial institution – where you’ll open envelopes for fifty or sixty thousand pounds a year. Others will discover that the inability to spell the word lager is no hindrance to getting a job as a rep for a major brewing company if they happen to sponsor your team. Some of you will go on to manage your father’s business. (Howard 2004: 159-60) These words were spoken by Father Denis Fehily, a character in The Miseducation Years by Paul Howard, one of a series of books featuring the adventures of an upper-middle class character called Ross O’Carroll-Kelly. Fehily is the headmaster of the fictional Castlerock College, an exclusive private Catholic school on the (affluent) south side of Dublin, and he makes it very clear that he is speaking to members of a socio-cultural elite. He appears in a number of the books in the series, all of which are supposedly dictated by the fictional main character, Ross, to the author, Paul Howard.

It's not beer because at another time in the pub he talks about getting the Britney Spears in. He spends all his time getting drunk and sleeping his way through the female half of the Irish phone book with little to no effort. O'Brien Press uses cookies on this website. Return to Book Page.

Also, instead of saying 'I said' he says 'I'm there' which again, if this is an Irish expression it's one I've never heard. All dealt with in Ross's own special way, disaster after disaster.
