From the social media phenomenon Weird Ireland comes a journey through strange and fascinating stories from across the island.

A hill that cars roll up. A bridge that plays music. A chair to cure madness. An underworld gateway. Bizarre foods, films, phrases and creatures. Welcome to weird Ireland.

In a journey across the island, Brinsley McNamara - curator of the popular social media channel Weird Ireland - shares his oddity obsession to bring you an off-the-beaten-track account of unique Irish wonders.

From UFOs and fairy forts to lake monsters and healing rocks, from standing stones and moving statues to fizzy
drinks and fast food, Weird Ireland is a book to be cherished by all seekers of the strange, rare and peculiar.

Featuring illustrations by Eoin Whelehan.

Brinsley McNamara is a writer, video maker and adventurer. He is the protagonist of the Weird Ireland social media channel where he wanders around the Emerald Isles looking for weird and fascinating stuff to document and quests to complete. He plans on clearing Ireland before moving onto elsewhere. Brinsley hails from County Westmeath, a place immortalised in the book The Valley of the Squinting Windows by Brinsley MacNamara, who also hailed from the same spot. This is his first book.
