Publisher's Summary
Longlisted for the Booker Prize 2019
The Number One Irish Times Best Seller
It's late one night at the Spanish port of Algeciras, and two fading Irish gangsters are waiting on the boat from Tangier. A lover has been lost, a daughter has gone missing, their world has come asunder - can it be put together again?
Night Boat to Tangier is a novel drenched in sex and death and narcotics, in sudden violence and old magic, but it is obsessed, above all, with the mysteries of love. A tragicomic masterwork from a multi-award-winning writer, Night Boat to Tangier is both mordant and hilarious, lyrical yet laden with menace.
Critic Reviews
"Gloriously freewheeling." (Guardian)
“Barry is a marvel: menacing, insistent, switching from brooding descriptions of the men’s nocturnal surroundings to their terse dialogue. The conviction with which he explores their search for Charlie’s missing daughter never fails.” (Financial Times, Audiobooks)
"A true wonder." (Max Porter)
"Beautifully written." (Guardian)

I found the story unbearably boring
I struggled to get through this to be honest. There wasn't a story as such, just old men rambling. The narrator, who's also the author, was soothing to listen to.

What an outstanding book
A great, great talent. Mesmerisingly read by the author. Will make you want to stop and rewind with great frequency as the beauty of his language washes over you. And made me want to get the paper version as well because this book is truly a keeper.
