Biography
American-born author of the lusty comic novel The Ginger Man (Paris, 1955; U.S., 1958), which introduced Dangerfield, the coarse, comic antihero. Donleavy is noted for characters who display heroism in the face of a mad universe and remain deeply attached to life despite its flaws. - Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literaturemore
