Martin Doyle, Irish Times books editor, interviews author Kevin Breathnach on his debut novel, Tunnel Vision. It is a documentary of the narrator’s post-adolescent relationships; an account of his life abroad; an autobiography of a compulsive liar detailed in six piercingly intelligent critical essays on photographic self-portraiture and a personal diary. Whether writing about the sale of Susan Sontag’s archive, or the reframing of André Kertész’s wedding photograph, Breathnach’s writing – brave, wild, and genre-bending – inaugurates a dazzling new voice in art and literature.
