Brian O’Dowd’s "Notions" arrives as an exhilarating tapestry of memoir, cultural history, and wry philosophical reflection, distinguished by its exuberant voice and a kaleidoscopic weave of Irish and global experience.

Steeped in Celtic mythology and music, and accurate Irish history, particularly of The Great Hunger, spiced with glimpses of the supernatural, Looking for Cornelius, by Diana Hayes is a satisfying story, set mostly in Ireland, of a young woman’s search for her Irish great-grandfather while accompanying her thirteen-year-old fiddle student to compete for a music scholarship in Cork City.

Brian O’Dowd’s "Notions" arrives as an exhilarating tapestry of memoir, cultural history, and wry philosophical reflection, distinguished by its exuberant voice and a kaleidoscopic weave of Irish and global experience. Spanning an extraordinary journey from Dublin’s schoolyards and libraries to academic laboratories, Trinidad shores, American cityscapes, and distant galaxies of scientific thought, O’Dowd’s narrative is propelled by curiosity, irreverent wit, and a profound engagement with the marvels and mayhem of both nature and society....
