Overview
Jimmy Rabbitte of The Commitments returns in the triumphant new novel from the Booker Prize-winning author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha
Watch for Roddy Doyle's new novel, Smile, coming in October of 2017
Full of the great joy in storytelling that characterizes Roddy Doyle's novels, The Guts catches up with Jimmy Rabbitte--the man who in the 1980s formed the Commitments, a band composed of working-class Irish youths whose mission was to bring soul music to Dublin. Jimmy is now
forty-seven, with a loving wife, four kids . . . and colon cancer. The news leaves him shattered and frightened--he isn't dying, he thinks, but he might be. As he battles his illness while running a small music business, he runs into former bandmates, reunites with his brother, and decides to live more in the moment. The Guts is a warm, funny novel about friendship and family, about facing death and opting for life.
