Frank McGovern has not lived a traditionally "good" life, being disloyal to his wife and a distant father to his son. However, when an accident befalls him and his existence is transformed overnight, something rather miraculous happens. In the struggle to find his way back into the light of the living, he must also traverse the long road that brought him to this point. These realizations come back in fits and starts, worked in expertly by the author, so readers are essentially rebuilding the puzzle of McGovern's life right along with him. The story has a universal quality that will speak to everyone, even if readers don't consider themselves to be overly religious. There is a spiritual and philosophical aspect to the points he is making, and the beliefs that the characters hold, rather than overtly religious - the potential to change your behavior and improve the path you make through the world is something to which everyone can aspire. Donnelly is both inspiring and gut-wrenching at the same time, capable of making readers laugh through tears and take a hard look at their own life story. As a whole, If I Came Back from Hell is a creative, thought-provoking, and passionate book by an author who is constantly finding new ways to probe the marrow of the human spirit.

Storytimes are special times for both child and reader. That's why I made these stories so that the reader can enjoy them just as much as the child. I've also made my stories with a moral and a twist. The morals of the stories are what you would want for your child, while the twist makes it exciting for them to guess which animal or insect the story concerns. Try to read the story without showing the drawing as it only gives the game away. Then when you read it over again and again, you'll have a different picture in your mind as the story unfolds.I called it "Children's stories for adults" because I want you the reader to enjoy it as much as your child.

"The complexities of religion, faith, love and tragedy tangle in the pages of Maybe God Was an Irishman, an entertaining and insightful novel by Bernie Donnelly. With an overflowing cast of peripheral characters and multiple storylines that brilliantly overlap, this is an expansive novel that stretches across oceans and philosophies, making it an addictive read for anyone who appreciates clever writing and heartfelt narratives." "The end of this novel will leave readers uplifted and refreshed - spiritually, emotionally and philosophically - regardless of one's particular religious beliefs or opinions. That is the sign of a truly great book and a very talented writer." - SPR Review Dec'16
