Reading Colm Tóibín
"To date no full-length studies of Colm Toibin's work have been published in Ireland or overseas, and only a few short essays have appeared in specialist academic journals and general surveys of recent Irish literature. This collection of essays fills this noticeable gap in contemporary criricisrn, and provides an illuminating exploration of many of the themes and concerns which have engaged Toibin ever since the publication of his first book, Walking Along the Border (1987). The collection provides a series of reflections and includes essays by some of the most prominent figures currently working in Irish Studies. The book also includes a lengthy interview of Toibin conducted by his former Magill associate, Fintan O'Toole."--BOOK JACKET.

Orwell was born in the year that Gissing died, 1903. Both of them lived 46 years and died of lung disease. It is likely that Orwell borrowed the first name of his pseudonym from Gissing. Orwell, though, chose to live among the poor to begin a lifelong commitment to leftist politics. Gissing became poor by bad luck and bad judgement; he came to believe that political solutions were unlikely t...

“The Real Thing”
With a writing career spanning over half a century and encompassing media as diverse as conferences, radio, journalism, fiction, theatre, film, and television, Tom Stoppard is probably the most prolific and significant living British dramatist. The critical essays in this volume celebrating Stoppard’s 75th birthday address many facets of Stoppard’s work, both the well-known, such as Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead and Shakespeare in Love, as well as the relatively critically neglected, including his novel Lord Malquist and Mr. Moon and his short stories, “The Story,” “Life, Times: Fragments,” and “Reunion.” The essays presented here analyze plays such as Arcadia, The In...
