First published in Ireland in 1958, this fantastic excursion of the mind, which moves between Dublin and Dundalk on a train headed for the scrap heap after fifty years, also reminds the reader of Tristram Shandy, Finnegans Wake, Ulysses, and At Swim-Two-Birds. But while Leopold Bloom is peripatetic in his Dublin Odyssey, Cusack's Desmond locks himself in train carriage 304D and orders out—sandwiches, whiskey, and beer. A brilliant tour de force melding time, place, and memory.

One can only say that Ralph Cusack has a giant mind. And has seen enough horror in his time to write several bibles. . . . It's the first time I've ever had to put a book down out of fear of going on to find out what's going to happen. --J. P. Donleavy
