Kaddish in Dublin

At almost 400 pages it's overly long, the plot gets a bit complicated and messy, and the ending isn't particularly satisfying (it feels rushed, which is a weird thing to say in a book this long)

However it was fun to read a story set in a Dublin of 1990 with an ongoing bus strike, multiple Bewley's locations, an old guard coming to grips with “the women's movement” but also moving away from the influence of the church.

Written by an Irishman who emigrated to Canada in the 70s, I wonder if these books were ever released in Ireland? I wasn't familiar with them, but I wasn't paying attention too hard either.
