Best books to learn Flann O'Brien, in order
O'Brien wrote under three names — Flann O'Brien for the novels, Myles na gCopaleen for the newspaper column, Brian O'Nolan on his civil service papers — and his best novel sat unpublished until after his death because a publisher rejected it in 1940. The shelf therefore makes no chronological sense at all. This path starts with the posthumous one.
