In the vein of Roddy Doyle's recent story collection "The Deportees," acclaimed author Gerard Donovan shines a literary light on new Ireland with his collection of stories, "Young Irelanders." Though the title might seem to refer to Ireland's 19th-century liberation movement, Donovan is actually talking, literally, about today's new Irish, be they immigrants or struggling adulterers.
