This original and engaging study explores the way in which Colm
Toibin repeatedly identifies and disrupts the boundaries between
personal and political or social histories in his fiction. Through
this collapsing of boundaries, he examines the cost of broader
political exclusions and considers how personal and political
narratives shape individual subjects. Each of Toibin's novels is
comprehensively addressed here, as are his non-fiction works,
reviews, plays, short stories, and some as-yet-unpublished work.
The book situates Toibin not only within his contemporary literary
milieu, but also within the contexts of the Irish literary
tradition, contemporary Irish politics, Irish nationalism, and
theories of psychology, gender, nationalism, and postcolonialism.
