What the Critics Said:
"A yarn that soars up into the vaulted blue. It is, we submit, literature. In it for a moment, the national letters have a glorious reversion to the roaring vigor of yore.” – James M. Cain
“A chunk of real life. It made me feel human and humble, which is good for anybody” - Upton Sinclair
"Shanty Irish is Jim Tully’s greatest contribution to American literature. In our opinion it will become a definite part of our national belles lettres.” – Bruce Gould, The New York Evening Post
"In Shanty Irish Jim Tully is in his brutal and tender glory." - George Currie, The Brooklyn Daily Eagle
"With great artfulness Tully draws his people-his romantic and other-worldly mother, his crude giant of a father, his indomitable grandmother, his Rabelaisian grandfather, and his luckless gentle sister. There are no lay figures among them; he contrives to make all of them live and move. The humorous episodes are full of rough and irresistible mirth." – American Mercury
