Eamonn Sweeney
Nathy Bruen is the musician who has it all. His talent brings him from a Sligo farm to a Manchester house of ill repute and on to New York at the height of the Jazz Age, where he becomes one of the stars of the new recording industry. Bruen rubs shoulders with gangsters, psychiatrists, heiresses, bearded ladies and circus strongmen. Most importantly there's Gilda Ancelotti, circus acrobat and love of his life. Loosely based on the life of Michael Coleman, Bruen's Twist is the story of an ordinary man with an extraordinary gift, whose highs and lows both tend towards the extreme.
