Published by Grove Atlantic
From the author of The Ginger Man: A “very funny” tragicomic tale of unrequited love in postwar Dublin (The New York Times Book Review).

In this follow-up to The Destinies of Darcy Dancer, Gentleman, called “a delightful romp” by the Los Angeles Times and “racy [and] raunchy” by the Plain Dealer, Darcy Dancer, the young squire of a crumbling mansion in the Irish countryside known as Andromeda Park, falls madly in love with the lissome Leila—but disaster dogs his heels, as usual . . .

“One of the most accomplished and original writers of our time.” —Joseph Heller, bestselling author of Catch-22

“A comic writer rivaling Waugh and Wodehouse.” —Life
