If the past is another country what happens when we revisit it, one day a year?Carlo Gébler has done just that. Here is the story of Ireland from the tail end of the Troubles to the Good Friday agreement, to the glory days of the Celtic Tiger to the recession to Brexit and on to the present, where, it appears, everything we thought we could take for granted is no longer a given.Drawing from journals he has kept for over four decades, Gébler stitches together days of his life into something bigger than his own lived experiences a vivid patchwork history of the island over thirty-five years, capturing those sweeping changes in sharp, funny, slantwise pieces that will prompt readers to reflect on the strange process of how we got here.This intelligent and affectionate compilation, written in Géblers sparkling prose, is a joy. Whether read from beginning to end or dipped into, it will appeal to anyone with even a passing interest in the astonishing evolution of our island.
