The Maximalist considers Tony O’Reilly’s life and influence, exploring the events and personalities behind his decline from a position of enormous wealth and influence to one, today, of relative penury.

An Irish epic, The Maximalist documents in unflinching detail and with great subtlety the meteoric rise and slow unravelling of an Irish icon.
