Presents essays by thirty-five leading scholars of Irish fiction that provide authoritative assessments of the breadth and achievement of Irish novelists and short story writers.

Recenzje

Harte's collection succeeds admirably. Gothic, romanticism, the historical novel, magic naturalism, social realism, modernism, hard-boiled noir, children's lit, film, political thrillers, police procedurals, the domestic novel, fiction in Irish, the Bildungsroman, post-modern experimentation - it's all here. If you teach modern literature, you will love this book. If you teach Irish literature, you will need it. Michael Gleason, James Joyce Literary Supplement
