Welcome to the only place in Ireland where you can sip a stout and save your soul.
Since 1870, O’Dooly’s Pub & Church has stood at the edge of Fisher Street in Doolin, Clare County, Ireland.
Generations of the O’Dooly family have served this sacred and slightly sacrilegious space, pouring pints, offering blessings, and keeping the peace between the pulpit and the pint glass. And somewhere in the mix, a leprechaun named Laffy has been causing holy hell for over a century.
Told with heart, humor, and a splash of irreverence, this magical realist novel blends Irish family saga, religious satire, and Celtic folklore into one unforgettable tale. You’ll meet priests who pour whiskey, barkeeps who offer grace, and villagers who know the line between heaven and hangover is thinner than a communion wafer.
If you love The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window, An Irish Country Doctor, or Good Omens, pull up a stool, or kneel, if you must.
O’Dooly’s Pub & Church is a literary toast to tradition, rebellion, and the holy art of carrying on.
About the author:
Rob Lezcano is a genre-bending author whose work explores memory, myth, legacy, and the thin veil between the ordinary world and the impossible one hiding just beneath it.
His writing moves freely between memoir, speculative fiction, magical realism, and myth-driven adventure, but each book is united by the same central question: What do we carry with us, and what refuses to let us go? Whether grounded in lived experience or wild invention, Rob’s stories examine identity, love, obsession, faith, and the quiet moments where truth reveals itself sideways.
