Meet the Popes Children - the new Irish generation, born either side of the Popes visit, who have been squeezed into the middle and lifted up by the Celtic Tiger. David McWilliams brilliant, bestselling survey of Ireland today is a celebration of success. He takes us to Deckland, that suburban state of mind where youll find the Kells Angels, those out-of-town commuters who are the cutting edge of the new prosperity. He introduces the HiCos the Hiberno-Cosmopolitans the elite whose distance from Deckland is measured in their cool sophistication, their ability to feel at home equally on the Boulevard Saint-Michel and on Hill 16. The Popes Children is an antidote to the endless pessimism of the Commentariat, official Irelands gloomy opinion mongers, forever seeing a glass half empty that is in fact three-quarters full. There is a vast surge of ambition, new money, optimism and hope out there. Thats the real story: The Popes Children tells it with style.
