"Himself" is a mystery. An orphan returns to the remote, conservative Irish village where he was born. He is not greeted with open arms. All he wants is to find out what happened to his mother but the villagers just want him to leave. As he searches we learn more about him, ghosts, Irish folk lore and the accompanying prejudices and the magic mysticism of Ireland. A great, entertaining book -- funny, violent, peopled with wonderful and evil characters. You will love it.
The Prologue is set in May 1950 but is only three pages long. Though a short piece it’s packed with drama as a woman is murdered while her baby son sleeps quietly in a nearby forest, hidden by great ferns. The book proper begins with chapter one set in April 1976 as a young man from Dublin named Mahony arrives in the town of Mulderrig. Now what do you think are the odds that Mr. Mahony is the baby son of that murdered woman? Right, they’re pretty good odds indeed. The reader will deduce this quickly but the folks in Mulderrig won’t catch on for a while. Mahony’s landlady, Mrs. Cauley, recruits him to help audition locals as performers in the town’s Christmas play. During the auditions Mrs. Cauley sneaks in many questions about Orla Sweeney and her whereabouts, a woman who turns out to be Mahony’s missing mother. All this curiosity causes a much greater interest by the townspeople in Mahony and just what he is doing in their town. Mahony, Mrs. Cauley, and other friends begin an investigation of the various characters in Mulderrig and who might be suspects in Orla’s disappearance. There’s even a supernatural element involved; the images of many dead citizens appear at different times to point the way. The unique charm of the Irish way of writing English prose is another enjoyable feature of this novel. You’ll have a grand time as long as you don’t get banjaxed by a wayward undesirable one. Fair play to you!
I am a voracious reader but am not enthralled with every book. THIS book was great! Engaging characters and a good plot--I could hardly put it down, and have recommended to friends.If you are a lover of all things Irish, and enjoy a bit of fantasy and ghostiness, you will love this book.
This is a wonderfully entertaining book. Having driven the roads of Western Ireland myself, I could easily picture the setting of this town that isn't...where a young man coming from Dublin determines he must visit to discover what happened to his mother here.The earth, wind, deceased spirits and lively characters meet with his will to help find the truth.Cannot think of a better St Paddy's Day read than this Kindle book, just $1.99 from Amazon.
Himself is an unusual mystery as we don't know from the beginning of the book if the character "disappeared" or was murdered. After all, this is Ireland and given the history of folk tales and myths, Orla could have been taken by the fairies. Unlike many readers who have commented here, I do not think this is a wonderful read. It is not literary fiction and I knew from the start that I wasn't reading Sebastian Barry or Roddy Doyle. The story was engaging enough and the characters developed enough but I stopped reading 2/3 of the way through the novel and returned it (to Kindle). The reason? Animal cruelty and abuse that has nothing to do with the story. The author refers to drowning kittens in a bag many times throughout the novel as it pertains to the disappearance of the main character. What finally did it for me was a cruel and completely unnecessary description of killing a pet that one might think fit the plot or added to the novel. I could not get that image out of my mind and I stopped reading the novel shortly after that. Do yourself a favor. If you want to read a murder mystery that takes place in Ireland, read Tana French.
â€Mulderrig is a place like no other. Here the colors are a little bit brighter and the sky is a little bit wider. Here the trees are as old as the mountains and a clear river runs into the sea. People are born to live and stay and die here. They don’t want to go. Why would they when all the roads that lead to Mulderrig are downhill so that leaving is uphill all the way?â€Mahoney returns to Mulderrig, although he has no memory of being there, it was in Mulderrig he was born. Raised in a Dublin orphanage, he never knew his mother, has no memory of her or of family, or even of this place.â€She couldn’t have known it but it was then that her baby stopped crying. The void her son had fallen into without the cradle of her gaze was immeasurable. He lay as mute as a little mushroom.â€He’s an adult now, old enough to search for her, for the reasons why she abandoned him. Who, and where he comes from.At first Mahoney’s presence goes mostly unnoticed by the mortal members of town, but Mahoney is aware of those beyond the realm who hover around him, teasing him with their presence. Their eyes tell so much, and nothing at all at the same time.â€For the dead are drawn to those with shattered soulsâ€.He is aware of the others, can see them, but he can’t see her. His mother. Orla Sweeney.He has a photograph of her, where she’s holding him as an infant, given to him as he was leaving the Orphanage. Sister Veronica had left him an envelope, his real name, and the town of his birth: Mulderrig. He knows from the note that he was taken from his mother, by unknown townspeople, because his mother was “the curse of the town.â€â€His dark eyes are her eyes, the shape of his face, hers. The way he stands with his weight shifted back on his heels and his nose in the air, hers.â€And so, Mahoney arrives in Mulderrig in search of himself.Jess Kidd shares her story in writing that is lovely, inspired, ingenious, and quintessentially Irish in the colloquial expressions. The mysterious mystical setting revealed with enough cleverness and wit to keep the heebie-jeebies at bay. Her characters are complex, including the intimidating local priest to Mrs. Cauley, a rather unconventional, wealthy, former theatre actress who is not afraid of much, and who takes Mahoney a bit under her wing.The hairs at the back of my neck stood up often, but perhaps most often at the splendor of her prose. Still there is an element that many would consider supernatural. Creepy, even.â€It is a truth universally acknowledged that when the dead are trying to remember something, the living are trying harder to forget it.Magical, moving, magnificent debut novel from Jess Kidd. I loved â€Himselfâ€, a uniquely beautiful blend of genres, a tale of love and loss, grief, and of secrets kept too long. Secrets that might rise from the grave under the right conditions and circumstances. With a little help.
