I think that the article should say when the books came out. Nandor1 (talk) 23:28, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know almost nothing about the Studs Lonigan trilogy and, after reading this article, I still don't. Why is the book rated so highly? ( I'm not being hostile, I just want to know). What's Studs Lonigan's character like? What's the plot? The summary says one book is "about racism" -- which race is involved, given that the main character is Irish and Irish aren't considered "a race"? Why aren't the books discussed individually? This article needs work. CharlesTheBold (talk) 14:31, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
