Reviews

‘The book is a triumph of archival detective work… Brady’s history chronicles a space laboriously carved out by twenty-five years of wit, courage and cunning… It is a finely drawn, rich and illuminating history, and offers significant insights into the relationship between women’s social networks, cultural activism, and sexual dissidence with implications far beyond mid-twentieth century Ireland.’ Gerardine Meaney, Irish University Review


‘The book is a triumph of archival detective work… Brady’s history chronicles a space laboriously carved out by twenty-five years of wit, courage and cunning… It is a finely drawn, rich and illuminating history, and offers significant insights into the relationship between women’s social networks, cultural activism, and sexual dissidence with implications far beyond mid-twentieth century Ireland.’ Gerardine Meaney, Irish University Review 'A timely and enlightening new study... Brady has read extensively and digested a vast amount of information, and she presents her findings with decisiveness and common sense.' Patricia Craig, Times Literary Supplement
