'What is most impressive about this book is the sheer range of theoretical and fictional material with which it engages. [....] It is a very welcome addition to the growing scholarship on Irish horror fiction.' Jarlath Killeen, Books Ireland Magazine


‘What is most impressive about this book is the sheer range of theoretical and fictional material with which it engages. [….] It is a very welcome addition to the growing scholarship on Irish horror fiction.’ Jarlath Killeen, Books Ireland Magazine '[Rough Beasts] opens up new possibilities in both Irish studies and the theory of horror. For this reason, it deserves the attention of any reader researching a definitively Irish gothic.' William Hughes, Victorian Studies
