The New York Times Publication Review called The Beastly Beatitudes of Balthazar B, J. P. Donleavy's amusing, bittersweet tale of a lost young man's existential odyssey, "a triumphant piece of writing, achieved recover total power, total mastery which shows that a fine copy writer is fully lengthened...." Within the years before and after World Battle II, Balthazar B is the world's previous shy, elegant young man. Delivered to riches in Paris and elevated by his governess, Balthazar is shipped off to a English boarding institution, where he fulfills the noble but naughty Beefy. The duo matriculate to Trinity College, Dublin, where Balthazar reads zoology and Beefy prepares for holy requests, even while sharing amorous adventures high and low, until their college or university careers come for an abrupt and decidedly unholy end. Written with trademark bravado and a healthy dose of sincerity, The Beastly Beatitudes of Balthazar B is vintage Donleavy.
