Perhaps this is a question more appropriate to ask Mr. Donleavy, but I'm curious how he feels his book, which was first published in 1955 in the middle of the 20th century, fits in with or "feeds" the culture in the 21st century? Does he feel his novel is still relevant today? And if so, why?

That's sure a question we can ask him.

I think that as far as discussing that here, I think any look at human nature and social interaction is always relevant. Basically we are all the just trying to survive within our worlds. I think we all know people today who are just like Sebastian...but these guys have a Bluetooth in their ears and never pick up their part of the check.

How true! There are still Sebastians in this world (I've met a few) and still Mary's to let themselves be used by them. (I've met some of them too).

I think Mary's using Sebastian for something she wants as well. SHE wants a baby.
