<p>Just moved into a new apartment, alone for the first time in years, Victor Forde goes every evening to Donnelly¿s pub for a pint, a slow one. <br><br>One evening his drink is interrupted. A man in shorts and a pink shirt brings over his pint and sits down. He seems to know Victor¿s name and to remember him from school. Says his name is Fitzpatrick.<br><br>Victor dislikes him on sight, dislikes too the memories that Fitzpatrick stirs up of five years being taught by the Christian Brothers.He prompts other memories too ¿ of Rachel, his beautiful wife who became a celebrity, and of Victor¿s own small claim to fame, as the man who says the unsayable on the radio.<br><br>But it¿s the memories of school, and of one particular Brother, that he cannot control - and which eventually threaten to destroy his sanity.</p>
