15641. ARE YOU SOMEBODY: THE ACCIDENTAL MEMOIR OF A DUBLIN WOMAN BY NUALA O'FAOLAIN. A critical summary and review of a female Irish journalist's memoir. Finds that the book is interesting for its portrayal of life in Dublin in the 1950's to 1970's, as well as for its insights into repressed Irish Catholic sexuality and the nature of male-female relations in the era, but that its appeal for readers outside of Ireland is sorely limited by the book's poor organization and the writer's tendency to digress, despite evidence of the author's considerable literary skills. KEYWORDS: book review irish catholic feminist women journalist o'faolain. 8 pages, 14 footnotes, 1 bibliographic source. 1,993 words.
