Some have compared this tale with Homer’s Odyssey and in many ways it is similar; a tale of heroic young men journeying long and hard through foreign lands to try and get home to their loved ones. But obviously without all that whining Greek melodrama and the sleeping with their mothers and the murdering their own children and all that old bollix.
Lads Incorporated – an adult comedy is set in Dublin Suburbia, amongst the educated, new working-class affluent; the beneficiaries of the Celtic Tiger. It is the story of five North Dublin lads and a summer night that will affect them all in different ways and change at least two of their lives forever. A lads night out that quickly degenerates into a series of strange and hilarious misadventures for our trusty heroes.
It’s a story of coming to terms with change, of embracing that change and not making too much of a gobshite out of yourself in the process. It is a comic look at modern Dublin, its characters, rich... More > language and atmosphere.< Less
About Alan Kelly
I'm a Dubliner and like most Dubliners there are things about this city I love and hate in equal measure - most of them are in "Lads Incorporated"!
This is the first time I've self-published and it was a pretty interesting experience. I hope you like "Lads Incorporated". It's just a bit of fun, so enjoy it and don't take anything in it too seriously. Remember - it's just fiction, just comedy, just a bit of light entertainment that might help get you through that boring train journey or that couple of hours wait in an airport somewhere.
I will be publishing my second novel (a military/conspiracy thriller) in the next week or two. Stay tuned!
