We read because we want to experience lives and emotions beyond our
own, to learn, to see with others' eyes. The 32 is a celebration of
working-class voices from the island of Ireland. Edited by
award-winning novelist Paul McVeigh, this intimate and illuminating
collection features memoir and essays from established and emerging
Irish voices including Kevin Barry, Dermot Bolger, Roddy Doyle,
Lisa McInerney, Lyra McKee and many more. Too often, working-class
writers find that the hurdles they come up against are higher and
harder to leap over than those faced by writers from more affluent
backgrounds. As in Common People - an anthology of working-class
writers edited by Kit de Waal and the inspiration behind this
collection - The 32 sees writers who have made that leap reach back
to give a helping hand to those coming up behind. Without these
working-class voices, without the vital reflection of real lives or
role models for working-class readers and writers, literature will
be poorer. We will all be poorer.
