Synopsis

Ireland has a new leader and a cabinet minister presents a scheme for prosperity.

Offer the bogs and unproductive areas to sentimental Irishmen abroad as a final resting place.

The scheme gains momentum and infighting begins.

After a great deal of treachery and double-dealing, the leader ends up as the only one who'll profit from the scheme.

Press Reviews

"A savage, albeit uproarious satire on Irish politics with a good many well-aimed whacks at Americans."
