"the joy of making shit up"
"become its midwife, bless his Welsh dragon red cotton socks"
"my secret past"
Myles Dungan writes with a sardonic, self-deprecating tone and embraces imaginative storytelling. The Red Branch is a historical espionage thriller set in 19th-century San Francisco involving Fenians engaged in clandestine activity. The novel originated from the joy of inventing scenes and characters. Jonathan Williams acted as the agent who supported the project and is affectionately described as having become the book’s midwife. A prior co-written crime thriller, Snuff, is recalled as a secret past. Personal experiences mentioned include the loss of his father, brutal school episodes, and connections with RTÉ.
