Dear AEDEI members,
We are very happy to share that different AEDEI members have contributed to the publication Companion to the Contemporary Irish Novel (Syracuse University Press), edited by Kathleen Costello-Sullivan, Derek Hand, and Neil Murphy.
Since the 1980s, Ireland has gone through a profound social, demographic, and religious disruption, the impact of which has been seen across recent fiction from Irish writers. This volume traces this cultural shift and its impact by examining how modern novels have reckoned with a new conception of Irishness. Bringing together thirty scholars from across the field, Companion to the Contemporary Irish Novel offers a complete contextualized reading to study vital changes in Irish national and cultural identity.

Congratulations to both authors and contributors!
