Breakfast on Pluto became a #1 bestseller in Ireland, remaining on the list for months and earning a nomination for the Man Booker Prize. With delicate insight, McCabe introduces Mr. Patrick "Pussy" Braden, an endearingly hopeful hero(ine) whose quest for love and survival drives a narrative where the troubles echo in the background. Two decades prior, Pussy escaped the small town of Tyreelin, Ireland, leaving behind a chaotic home life with her foster mother Whiskers to start anew in London. There, adorned in blousey tops and satin miniskirts, she navigates the perilous nightlife of Piccadilly Circus, facing threats from both suave businessmen and lonely old women. Set against the backdrop of the 1970s, fear permeates the streets of London and Belfast as historical tensions rise, drawing Pussy into a whirlwind of violence and tragedy that threatens to shatter his fragile spirit. Brilliant and profound, the narrative masterfully blends light and dark, laughter and pain, leaving a lasting impact that resonates in our minds and hearts long after the story concludes.
