Over the past twenty years, Dublin has become both a colourful, international tourist destination and a place for stylish, sophisticated lifestyles. All the rich flavours and excitement of living in contemporary Dublin are beautifully recorded here in atmospheric photographs and evocative commentary.
Once victims of neglect, the elegant streets, squares and monuments of Georgian Dublin have been rescued and restored to their former grace and grandeur, and the old city now provides the infrastructure for the new Dublin. Its 18th-century streets are home to a heady mixture of art galleries, bars, restaurants, clubs and shops, which make the area a favourite venue on summer evenings for public entertainment.
The stylish residences of the new Dublin - from opulent, traditional Georgian to spare Modernist, and the very latest in urban loft conversions - provide photographer and author with the opportunity to evoke the satisfactions of living in this most welcoming of cities.
Living in Dublin is completed by listings of sights and places to stay and eat, making this the only major lifestyle guide to one of Europe's most vibrant cities.
