No Authority: Writings from the Laureate for Irish Fiction

The pieces in this book explore a range of topics--many touching on the idea of authority, and who truly possesses it--ranging from Enright's relationship with Irish literature, how she coped with the loss of her father and the ascent of Trump in the same year, and the groundswell to lift the Irish constitutional ban on abortion in 2018. No Authority reveals the breadth of interest and expertise, as well as the urgent concern for the role of women in contemporary Irish society, that characterizes the work of this literary luminary in any genre.
