Sharkey

Sharkey was born in Arklow, County Wicklow, Ireland, and emigrated to the United States in his twenties. He spent the next three decades in Los Angeles — working, building, performing a version of himself that held together longer than it should have.

The Back Table is his first book. It took him a long time to write, and longer to decide to publish. He lives in Los Angeles.
