In Reading Rites, Evelyn Conlon brings her wit and keen intelligence to the task of exploring her life, drawing on the events, people, books and concerns that have made her the writer she is. Part memoir, part manifesto, it is full of the sharp observation, restless questioning and hard-won wisdom that have made her one of Ireland's finest writers.

This new collection of eleven stories by one of Ireland's most important writers brings together the best of Evelyn Conlon's work from the last ten years, and a number of new stories, including a novella-length story.

A compelling portrait of a family that brings Irish history to life.

Patricia Craig was expelled from her convent school in Belfast in 1959. This was not a time when pupils from respectable families were expelled, and certainly not for 'carrying-on' with the local boys on a school-organised Irish-language course. This book is the story of the events surrounding her expulsion and its far-reaching consequences.

Featuring over two hundred and fifty poems by celebrated poets such as Francis Ledwidge, W.B.

Eilis Ni Dhuibhne's candid and moving memoir tells the story of her thirty-year relationship with the love of her life, internationally renowned folklorist Bo Almquist, capturing brilliantly the compromises and adjustments and phases of their relationship, and of how he died.

A collection of ten new stories by one of Ireland's most renowned short story writers. Sharply observed and beautifully written, this new collection is concerned with women who find themselves in unfamiliar territory of one kind or another and are trying to find a sense of equilibrium.

The 14 stories in this collection demonstrate the breadth of Eilis Ni Dhuibhne's achievement across her writing career, particularly in terms of her depiction of the complex territory of women's lives. They are testament to her enduring talent for weaving stories that draw us in and stay with us in the silence, long after the story has ended.

Ireland, 2010, and austerity is biting. When downbeat and disaffected Noelie Sullivan finds his missing punk records for sale in a charity shop in Cork, it seems like a lucky break until he discovers documents inside one of the sleeves, alleging that missing local man, Jim Dalton, was murdered twenty years ago.
