Details
by John B. Keane (Author)
This is the story of Dan Murray, who emigrated to England in 1952. He finds work as a building labourer and in time he becomes a building contractor. John B. Keane captures the turbulent, bawdy, anarchic life of Irish contractors and labourers as they try to make it big in England. Told in his usual hilarious and bulls-eye accurate style.
Back Jacket
The Contractors is a stirring story of people who were forced to emigrate and work in England in the early 1950s. Before leaving Ireland they were warned about the likely evils that they would confront in that pagan place. John B. Keane, with his wonderful skill and humour, brings them to life in these unforgettable pages as he gives us the fascinating details of their daily existence, their exhilarations and their sorrows.
