The Feckin' Book of Bankers, Builders, Blaggers and Bowsies That Banjaxed the Nation (Feckin' Collection) by Colin Murphy
Entertaining, biased, takes many of the phrases bandied about over the last few years about the banks and the issues and explains them in entertaining ways. A little hard on the Civil Service but people seem to find them an easy target.
The illustrations are crude and often pointedly sexist.

A book of short essays mostly by living Protestants. Slightly bizarre to find I am acquainted with 8 out of 57 contributors (work 1, political and activist 5, church 1, school 1). It's a small world.
Some contributors are bland, others are very reminiscent of my childhood, some quite foreign to my experience.

The Feckin' Book of Irish Sayings for When You Go on the Batter With a Shower of Savages by Colin Murphy
A must have for Americans with Irish friends
J'ai vecu en Irlande depuis 7 ans a pros pres. Avec ce livre j'ai pu verifier beaucoup de choses des irlandais que j'avais decouvert. Et j'ai apris des autres. C'est un livre drole, fait avec un très bon sens d'humour.
