Comic Novelist Salutes Irish Publishing Industry

'It is not for me to draw parallels between my own life and
that of Christ. But ponder this: I entered public life in
millennial times. I wrote my masterpiece in a two hour
burst after a twenty nine year gestation period. And true,
Christ was crucified while I was merely held on remand, but
I'm willing to bet he experienced similar difficulties
getting the Bible published. This is the trouble with
genius. When the film rights are eventually sold it can
often be up to two thousand years too late for the author
to cash in.'
