Following the recent advancements in Irish lesbian politics, North
and South, lesbian writing is attracting more attention from
scholarly audiences, making this body of work particularly timely.
Irish Lesbian Writing Across Time is an attestation of a historical
presence of lesbians in Irish literature, as it analyses the
progression of Irish lesbian narrative over the past two centuries,
while verifying key characteristics of time periods that correspond
with the model of development. It also investigates Irish lesbian
activist literature, writing from diaspora, and fiction published
around the time of the decriminalisation of homosexual acts and
later the inclusion of same-sex marriage in Irish and Northern
Irish laws. The book examines authors such as Maria Edgeworth,
Sarah Grand, George Egerton, Elizabeth Bowen, Kate O'Brien, Edna
O'Brien, Emma Donoghue, Mary Dorcey, Anna Livia, Shani Mootoo, and
Hilary McCollum, whose inclusion of lesbian desire to the Irish
literary canon proves an invaluable contribution.
