Hardback. Zustand: Good. The words of its writers are part of the texture of Dublin, an invisible counterpart to the bricks and pavement we see around us. Beyond the ever-present footsteps of James Joyce's characters, Leopold Bloom or Stephen Dedalus, around the city centre, an ordinary-looking residential street overlooking Dublin Bay, for instance, presents the house where Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney lived for many years; a few blocks away is the house where another Nobel Laureate, W. B. Yeats, was born. Just down the coast is the pier linked to yet another, Samuel Beckett, from which we can see the Martello Tower that is the setting for the opening chapter of Ulysses. But these are only a few. Step-by-step, Dublin: A Writer's City unfolds a book-lover's map of this unique city, inviting us to experience what it means to live in a great city of literature. The book is heavily illustrated, and features custom maps.…

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The short story flourishes in Ireland. All Irish conditions seem to favour it.

The first Golden Age was in the middle years of the 20th century; an extraordinary flowering of stories from Elizabeth Bowen, Sean O Faolain, Flann OBrien, Frank OConnor, Samuel Beckett, Maeve Brennan, Edna OBrien (the list could go on) came at a time when Ireland was repressed and inward-looking, dominated by the church and enervated by migration.
