Five Irish Women is comprised of five interlinked portraits of
exceptional Irish women from various fields - literature,
journalism, music, politics - who have achieved outstanding
reputations since the 1960s: Edna O'Brien, Sinead O'Connor, Nuala
O'Faolain, Bernadette McAliskey and Anne Enright. Several of these
could claim to be among the best-known Irish people of their day.
The book looks at their achievements -- works of art in some cases,
but also life-writing, interviews and speeches - and at their
reception in Ireland and elsewhere, shedding light on some of their
shared preoccupations, including equality, sexuality and
nationalism. The main focus is on the ways in which these
distinguished women make sense of their formative experiences as
Irish people and how they in turn have been understood as
representative figures in modern Ireland. -- .
