Irish Fiction

From Cecelia Ahern to W.B. Yeats, Irish fiction has something to offer every reader; whether they are interested in the particularly Irish experience or the human condition in general. Fans of the so-called chick-lit genre will delight in authors such as Marian Keyes, Deirdre Purcell, Sheila O'Flanagan and Kate Thompson, while those interested in more classical Irish authors can choose among the likes of Elizabeth Bowen, John McGahern, Liam O'Flaherty and many, many others. Whether it's the humour of Roddy Doyle you're after, or the wanderlust of Dervla Murphy, the wit of Oscar Wilde or the nail-biting suspense of Galway author, Ken Bruen, Irish fiction spans such a broad spectrum that it can satisfy any reader.
