Description
Brendan Behan's Confessions of an Irish Rebel is a poignant and unflinching account of his life, touching on both the highs and lows of his extraordinary journey. The book picks up where his earlier work, Borstal Boy, left off, providing a unique and unorthodox look at a life that was marked by both genius and tragedy. First published after Behan's tragic death, this autobiography offers a raw and honest portrayal of his experiences, from his early days to his later struggles with the law. The result is a deeply personal and thought-provoking work that sheds light on the complexities of Behan's life and the world he inhabited. A hundred thousand welcomes home to you, the immigration officer's words to Behan are a powerful symbol of the reception he received upon his return to Ireland. This book is a testament to the enduring power of Behan's story, and a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the life and times of this remarkable individual.
