description: Kerrigan is writing a guide book to his adopted city of Copenhagen. Specifically a guide to the city's drinking establishments-of which there are more than 1500.Thus it is a project potentially without end and one with a certain amount of numbness built into it through countless drinks imbibed.And that is part of the point: for Kerrigan an American expat fleeing a brutal family tragedy has plenty he wants to numb.The only problem with his project is his research associate a voluptuous green eyed gal who makes him tremble with forgotten desire.Kerrigan in Copenhagen is a love story. It is also a deeply human Joycean romp through a magical city-its people history literature and culture-giving Copenhagen its literary due and establishing Kennedy as a tremendously gifted novelist.
