Irish Fiction

Startling, fresh and utterly unique, Snowflake is a story of messy families, messier friendships and how new chapters often mean starting right back at the beginning.

Poguemahone is a wild, free-verse monologue, steeped in music and folklore, crammed with characters, both real and imagined, on a scale Patrick McCabe has never attempted before.

A young woman's body floats in the Dubai marina. Her death alters the fates of six people, each one striving for a better life in an unforgiving city.

Holding Her Breath is a razor-sharp, moving and seriously entertaining novel about complicated love stories, ambition and grief - and a young woman coming fully into her powers.

Dubray Staff Recommended Read... If the Irish short story were a sport, Colin Barrett would be an Olympian. Set in Ireland and Canada, the stories in Homesickness weave madness from the mundane and comedy from tragedy. Barrett, witty as he is affectionate, invites us to stay a while in a Mayo that giveth and taketh away, but mostly taketh away. The ensuing antics are frequently absurd, but with a core of tender heartache that will leave you thinking about this collection long after the last page. Recommended by Adam Donnelly, Dubray Dun Laoghaire.
