The essential Irish guide to Brexit.
Tony Connelly has been reporting on Europe for RTE since 2001, firstly as Europe Correspondent, and more recently as Europe Editor. He lives in Brussels.
Required reading ... As Ireland navigates its way through Britain's
withdrawal and the new Europe taking shape, this fine book offers
an indispensable guide to the hazards and the opportunities along
the way
*Irish Times*
Excellent ... It ought to be read in every European capital ...
Connelly examines how Brexit will affect every part of the Irish
economy
*Sunday Times*
Magisterial ... Connelly has encyclopaedic knowledge of European
diplomatic processes and the political realities of the border, and
is able to use them to great effect
*Irish Independent*
Definitive ... Connelly covers the politics very well, but he also
writes vividly, with colour and pace and detail, about the
businesses and communities that will be affected. It's a superb
work of reporting, and a much needed one
*Guardian*
I was completely absorbed by Tony Connelly's Brexit and Ireland ...
Connelly shows that the implications for the Irish Republic extend
to the entire economy and its relationship with the EU
*New Statesman Books of the Year*
One of the most enticing aspects of Connelly's book is his promise
to tell you the inside story of the Irish response. This is
delivered on ... He has an eye for human details that enrich the
book: not only does he bring you into the room at Number 10 when
Theresa May and Enda Kenny were engaged in the high-wire dance of
working out the post-Brexit reality, but he tells you what they had
for dessert ... The first-hand account of the mass mobilisation of
Official Ireland's soft and hard power after the result, as
negotiations got into gear, is engrossing
*Sunday Business Post*
It's a brilliant book - very well explained and very accessible -
everyone should read it.
*The Stand*
A valuable guide through the Brexit labyrinth
*Sunday Business Post Books of the Year*
