Über diesen Titel

'A wonderful take on the chaos of the modern word' Louise O'Neill

'Carl has the rare gift of combining analytical clarity with maniacal vulnerability' Blindboy Boatclub

'Sharp, inventive and irresistibly engaging' Sophie White

In At Least It Looks Good From Space, journalist Carl Kinsella attempts to solve the great human mystery of why we are the way we are in this chaotic era of internet algorithms, disinformation campaigns (Carl's only responsible for one of these), pandemics (he's not responsible for any of those) and the judgement-clouding influence of nostalgia.

Here, Carl explores the complexities of being friends with men, how online platforms might be making us addicted to attention, the way millennials relate to the generations around them, and that one time he fell into a lagoon when investigating a mystery in Lahinch. From OCD and intrusive thoughts to unknowingly breaking the law at Dollywood, he revisits the pivotal events in his life - times of true joy, paralysing fear, and confusion. Mostly confusion.

Honest and deeply human, At Least It Looks Good From Space is a colourful search for answers about what it means to be losing your mind in a world that encourages it.

Kritikerstimmen

Funny and wry, while at the same time thought-provoking and a little sad .. A self-deprecating, insightful and witty collection of stories ... The clever, and at times beautiful, writing make it a thoroughly enjoyable read
Kinsella proves a sharp satirist and a shrewd observer of the minutiae of Irish life ... At Least it Looks Good From Space exists in that space between comedy and calamity
