Reviews

“Edward O’Rourke has written a sensitive and lucid analysis of the world and work of Maeve Brennan. Scholarly but never scholastic, his book shows him as one who has the gift of explanation rather than simplification. He has a heightened awareness of the nuances of Brennan’s style along with a sure grasp of the sociocultural realities out of which her writing came. His book will bring this gifted and unusual woman to a new generation of readers.” Prof. Declan Kiberd, author of Inventing Ireland (1996) and Ulysses and Us (2009)
