Produktbeschreibung

Revised and with two new chapters, this study treats the entirety of Bernard MacLaverty’s oeuvre, devoting a chapter to each of his five novels and six short-story collections. It shows how his linguistically precise fiction, suffused with authentic dialogue and humor from Northern Ireland, realistically renders the human condition and suggests our need for community.
