If you can find it. I have no idea if you can find the books I read in your typical American bookshop/library. I remember going into Borders at Christmas and finding their collection of Irish lit to be pretty pathetic, but I think I remember that one getting a good reception stateside. It's really engaging and has a great voice to it--talking about the Troubles of Northern Ireland
Music rec would be Seth Lakeman, in particular, "The Hurlers." Definitely pull it up on youtube and watch the music video. It's absolutely gorgeous! Filmed in the Minack Theatre in Cornwall (if I remember right!), which was pretty much built for The Tempest. Trust me on this!
My chances of finding it are pretty good everything considered. I can always request the library buy it, if no one in the library system owns it. Lol. I've got more options than most in finding hard to find books.
