Lee Dunne is infamous for being Ireland’s most banned author.
“The Hill was a scab, a sort of dry sore on the face of Dublin. By the age of ten you knew all about puddin’ clubs and doses of the pox and you smiled sardonically, even though you didn’t know that that’s what you were doing, whenever anybody talked about Santy Claus and the Stork and all that rubbish.That was how it was on the Hill, you learned fast whether you wanted to or not.”
When Goodbye to the Hill first appeared it was a controversial bestseller. Forty years later, Lee Dunne’s bitingly honest novel about life in Dublin’s slumland is still as potent. It is rich in humour, truth and honesty and its hero, the loveable Paddy Maguire who nurses a burning ambition to get off the Hill, is one of the most memorable characters in fiction.
