Flann O'Brien
'''Brian O'Nolan (; 5 October 19111 April 1966), his pen name being Flann O'Brien''', was an Irish civil service official, novelist, playwright and satirist, who is now considered a major figure in twentieth-century Irish literature. Born in Strabane, County Tyrone, he is regarded as a key figure in modernist and postmodern literature. His English language novels, such as ''At Swim-Two-Birds'' and ''The Third Policeman'', were written under the O'Brien pen name. His many satirical columns in ''The Irish Times'' and an Irish-language novel, ''An Béal Bocht'', were written under the name Myles na gCopaleen.O'Brien's novels have attracted a wide following both for their unconventional humour and as prominent examples of modernist metafiction. As a novelist, O'Brien was influenced by James Joyce. He was nonetheless skeptical of the "cult" of Joyce, saying "I declare to God if I hear that name Joyce one more time I will surely froth at the gob." Provided by Wikipedia
