The Ballymun Trilogy - by Irish playwright Dermot Bolger - uniquely captures the birth, demolition, and regeneration of an Irish satellite town. From These Green Heights was previously published, while The Townlands of Brazil and The Consequences of Lightning are now available for the first time. Brilliantly theatrical and shifting seamlessly across time, Dermot Bolger's The Ballymun Trilogy is a kaleidoscope of stories about love and tragedy and tenderness - a superbly realized history of the hidden lives of any city.
