Publisher's Synopsis
Diary of an Ant is the first English language translation of Cin lae seangain agus scealta eile, the critically acclaimed, award-winning collection of short stories by Dublin-born author Tomas Mac Siomoin. With his cultural roots in Ireland 's Gaelic West, Mac Siomoin takes a darkly humorous look at the failure and the innate dishonesty of most inter-human relating against a backdrop of ultimate absurdity that he sees as underlying all human experience.
