It is quite amusing to read the perceivably arrogantly and omnisciently chosen definitive lists of books of 2015 in some of the hierarchical media, cherrypicked largely by the same coterie of cliques and elites as every year. Plus ça change.
Three books I enjoyed in 2015 and had the pleasure to review are:
The Lie of the Land

Review published in Books Ireland, November/December 2015, Issue No. 364

The Truth & Other Stories
