    This book is more like listening to Malachy spin a yarn in front of you. It's not really like reading a book. Great stories of a man (mid 20's and on) and his adventures in New York.

I really laugh out loud while I'm reading this story, and that is a very nice respite given all the work and other stress i'm dealing with currently.
