The Dry: painfully funny

Ciaran Hinds in The DryThe Dry - "an irreverent, hilarious, and deeply moving story of addiction, recovery and fractured family relationships" - tells the story of Shiv Sheridan as she returns to her home town of Dublin, sober and with good intentions, after years of partying in London.
