"Whoredom in Kimmage is a fascinating book: uncommonly well written, eminently readable, a thorough and perceptive investigation of its subject."
--William Trevor
"Rosemary Mahoney has a wonderful ear and an alert, cutting sensibility...Whoredom in Kimmage captures some stunning shards of Irish life."
--The New York Times Book Review
"Whoredom in Kimmage is a superb book, the close and patient observation of a world by a writer whose highly developed consciousness expresses itself with ease, mystery and grace."
--New York Newsday
"Writing with a fondness that in true Hibernian fashion wavers not far from a frown, Mahoney vividly portrays a still-superstitious, class-ridden country belatedly stumbling into modernity."
--Esquire
"This book has the fully furnished atmosphere of a work of fiction: Mahoney is brilliant at re-creating the cast of a face, the particular smell of a room. She is a realist and a miniaturist, and one of the pleasures of reading her comes from watching her show how each small detail, no bigger than the shape of a crooked, broken-toothed smile, fits into the bigger canvas of Irish life."
--Jonathan Raban
