"With its diverse array of international scholarship, critical overviews and textual analyses, Irish Literature Since 1990 provides a path-breaking assessment of trends and themes in representations of postnational Ireland. A valuable resource for both teachers and students." George O'Brien, Professor of English, Georgetown University (Washington DC)
