In thirty-five years and dozens of return trips to Ireland, Thomas Lynch has found a template for the larger world inside the small one, the planet in the local parish. Part memoir, part cultural study, Booking Passage is a brilliant, often comedic guidebook for those "fellow travelers, fellow pilgrims" making their way through the complexities of their own lives and times.

Industry Reviews

"He's no mere tourist but a man who's made a deep personal commitment to the land from which his forebears came and who has a sensitive, nuanced understanding of the place and its people... It's a lovely book." -- Washington Post "[Lynch's] is a subtle, quick-moving mind, and it is a pleasure to walk beside his mental perambulations ... rendered with love and grace." -- Detroit Free Press "[Lynch] draws an enticing picture of his home away from home: the dreamlike environs of Moveen, County Clare." -- New York Times Book Review
