Roysh Here, Roysh Now… The Teenage Dirtbag Years
Roysh Here, Roysh Now… The Teenage Dirtbag Years is a 2001 novel by Irish journalist and author Paul Howard, and the second in the Ross O'Carroll-Kelly series.[1][2][3][4] The title refers to the Fatboy Slim song "Right Here, Right Now" and the Wheatus song "Teenage Dirtbag". PlotRoss begins higher education, of a sort, at University College Dublin and between terms takes a break to the United States.[4] The Teenage Dirtbag Years
In 2004, a revised and expanded edition, titled The Teenage Dirtbag Years, was published. ReceptionIn the Irish Independent, Declan Lynch wrote "I don't regard the musings of O'Carroll-Kelly as being essentially humorous. I regard them as straight reportage, journalism of a very high order, which holds up a mirror to a way of life, a whole breed of men, most of whom will be avidly participating in the Rugby World Cup. I don't think that some of these guys are a bit like Ross some of the time, I think they're all a lot like Ross, all of the time."[5] Ferdia Mac Anna called The Teenage Dirtbag Years "engagingly subversive," while John Healy called it "Silly but fun."[6][7] References
