  • "Een jonge Ier voelt zich meer vrouw dan man en trekt naar Londen om er als travestiet in de rosse buurten te werken, tot hij verdacht wordt van een terroristische aanslag door de IRA."
  • "Patrick est abandonné à sa naissance par sa mère, à lentrée dun presbytère irlandais. Le père Liam McIver recueille lenfant puis le confie bientôt à une famille dadoption. Le garçon grandit et est très vite attiré par les vêtements féminins. Rebaptisé Patrick << Kitten >> Braden, il se consacre à la couture et aux paillettes plutôt quau foot. Et il grandit avec une seule obsession : retrouver sa mère, qui ressemble tant à Mitzi Gaynor. De lIrlande des années 60 au Londres des années 70, Patrick traverse une époque bouillonnante sur les plans culturel, politique et social. Croisant sur sa route une faune éclectique, il court les petits boulots, les concerts de rock, les boîtes de nuits et les hommes dangereux."

  • "Set in the 1970's, Breakfast on Pluto follows the exploits of Patrick Braden, an endearing, but deceptively tough young man. Abandoned as a baby in his small Irish hometown and aware from a very early age that he is different, Patrick survives this harsh environment with the aid of his wit and charm, plus a sweet refusal to let anyone and anything change who he is. Neil Jordan weaves a wonderfully surreal and magical tale to bring us this funny, moving and poignant rites of passage account of a young man enduring the trials and tribulations he faces with a smile and unwavering faith in the inherent goodness in us all."@en
