Book excerpt: Eilis Ni Dhuibhne is generally considered to be one of Ireland's finest practitioners of the short story. This book brings together nine of her best stories from her first two collections, "Blood and Water" and "Eating Women is Not Recommended," as well as three brand-new stories. Ranging from the ultra realistic "Some Hours in the Life of a Witch," to the surreal fantasy world of "Fulfillment" and "The Wife of Bath," the stories describe ordinary and not so ordinary life, and the lives of women in particular, in the feminist and post-feminist eras in Ireland.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruán, Emma, and Colm are from different worlds despite living in the same city: their schools, houses, and groups of friends mark them as snobs or scobies in each other's eyes. When a terrible accident devastates Ruan's family, he must find a way of coping, with help from Emma. Meanwhile Colm goes on the run from a crime he did not commit. As the three teenagers attempt to deal with their own family crises and study for their final school exams, their lives become intertwined. A keenly perceptive account of Dublin life, Snobs, Dogs and Scobies is about social stereotypes, class differences, and teenage friendships. First published in Irish as Hurlamaboc, the book won a Bisto Merit Award in 2007, a Duais Oireachtais in 2006, and was shortlisted for Irish Book of the Year 2006.

Inspired by Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, this panoramic and compulsively readable new novel is an intelligent, witty and fiercely humane insight into modern Ireland."--Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During much of the twentieth century, Irish women's position was on the boundaries of national life. Using Julia Kristeva's theories of nationhood, often particularly relevant to Ireland, this study demonstrates that their marginalization was to women's, and indeed the nation's, advantage as Irish women writers used their voice to subvert received pieties both about women and about the Irish nation. Kristevan theories of the other, the foreigner, the semiotic, the mother, and the sacred are explored in authors as diverse as Elizabeth Bowen, Kate O'Brien, Edna O'Brien, Mary Dorcey, Jennifer Johnston, and Eilis Ni Dhuibhne, as well as authors from Northern Ireland like Deirdre Madden, Polly Devlin, and Mary Morrissy. These writers, whose voices have frequently been sidelined or misunderstood because they write against the grain of their country's cultural heritage, finally receive their due in this important contribution to Irish and gender studies.

Book excerpt: When Maria Mills flees London with only a suitcase and her young daughter, she is intent on a new life. To hide from her past, she has carefully constructed a story based on a lie even her child believes is true. It is 1965 and Dublin is a city on the cusp of change. As the country prepares to commemorate the 1916 Rising, Maria meets Tess McDermott, a former member of Cumann na mBan. Tess saw active service during the Rising and Maria soon realises that she, too, is closely guarding a secret. Set against the backdrop of stifling social mores alongside a defiant new wave of women's liberation, What Becomes of Us is a beautifully told story of the delicate balance between risk and survival, of nationhood and of the struggle to carve out a new identity when the past refuses to let go.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, 1997. 'Carr's harrowing play has the scale and anguish of myth, and the immediacy of a contemporary anecdote.' Independent on Sunday There's a wolf tooth growin in me heart and it's turnin me from everywan and everthin I am. Portia Coughlan lives life in monstrous limbo, haunted by a yearning for her spectral twin brother lying at the bottom of the Belmont river, unable to find any love for her wealthy husband and children, seeking solace in soulless affairs, deeply afraid of what she might do. Portia Coughlan premiered on the Abbey Theatre's Peacock Stage, Dublin, in April 1996 and transferred to the Royal Court Theatre, London, in May that year. It was revived at the Almeida Theatre, London, in October 2023. 'Taut and haunting, funny and sad . . . Carr plays with time and place to resonant, ultimately devastating effect.' The Stage 'One of the most important Irish plays of the twentieth century.' Arts Review 'Marina Carr goes to a deep place that has not just to do with society now but that touches an inner tragedy of existence. The female quality of her writing comes through not only in the way she writes about women, it's in the physicality in her writing. She is right in there with the cycles of life, with the blood and the dirt.' Joyce McMillan, New York Times
