This is the first book to provide a critical assessment of the work
of the Irish author Mary O'Donnell. The essays collected here
engage with O'Donnell's writing across multiple genres and explore
the themes and preoccupations that have characterized her oeuvre.
Alongside her creative work, O'Donnell's has been a steady and
continuing voice for many years within the world of theatre
criticism, book reviewing, essay writing, radio broadcasts and
cultural commentary. As a writer, O'Donnell's principal themes
include contemporary Irish society, the position of women in
Ireland and the role of the artist. Throughout her career, her
approach has been unconventional and her work has sometimes
presented a challenge to the status quo. The contributors to this
volume illuminate O'Donnell's role as a humanist writer searching
for truth at all costs, through the fictive lives of her often
unusual characters, and through the emotional range and depth of
her poetry.
