Read Ireland
As you may have heard, on Monday October 10, Irish-author
John Banville won the 2005 Man Booker Prize for his recent
novel 'The Sea', which was Read Ireland's Book of the Month
for Fiction in July. Here is what we said:
The brilliant new novel by the Booker-shortlisted author of
Shroud and The Book of Evidence, John Banville is, quite
simply, one of the greatest novelists writing in the
English language today. When Max Morden returns to the
coastal town where he spent a holiday in his youth he is
both escaping from a recent loss and confronting a distant
trauma. The Grace family appear that long ago summer as if
from another world. Drawn to the Grace twins, Chloe and
Myles, Max soon finds himself entangled in their lives,
which are as seductive as they are unsettling. What ensues
will haunt him for the rest of his years and shape
everything that is to follow. John Banville is one of the
most sublime writers working in the English language.
Utterly compelling, profoundly moving and illuminating, The
Sea is quite possibly the best thing he has ever written.

History's Daughter: A Memoir of the Only Child of Terence
MacSwiney by Maire MacSwiney Brugha (Hardback; 28.00 Euro /
34.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 320 pages, with black-and-white
photos throughout)
Maire MacSwiney Brugha is the only child of Terence
MacSwiney, one of the greatest figures in Ireland's
history, who died after seventy-three days on hunger strike
in Brixton Prison on 25 October 1920. His death became
worldwide news. After her father's death, Maire was taken
by her mother to live on the continent. For nine years she
lived away from Ireland, mostly in Germany and occasionally
in Paris. She grew up effectively as a German child,
speaking the language and attending school at a time when
her adopted country would shortly descend into chaos. In
the early thirties, when she was still in her early teens,
Maire made a dramatic escape with her aunt, Maire
MacSwiney, home to Ireland, against her mother's wishes.
This led to a court case claiming Maire had been kidnapped
but this claim was strongly refuted and Maire remained with
her aunt in Cork. In 1945, she married Ruairi Brugha, the
son of another famous republican, Cathal Brugha, thus
uniting two of Ireland's most prominent and revered
nationalist families.

Young Tigers and Mongrel Foxes: A Life in Politics by Paddy
Harte (Hardback; 25.00 Euro / 30.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 350
pages, with an 8-page black-and-white photo insert)
Much more than another political memoir, this is an honest,
no-punches-pulled account of Irish politics by a man who
served as a Dail Deputy for thirty-six years, including a
revealing appraisal of the personalities and leadership of
James Dillon, Liam Cosgrave, Garret FitzGerald, Alan Dukes
and John Bruton. With a constituency adjoining the Border,
Paddy Harte had a particular understanding of the Northern
situation and the book discloses his pioneering attempts to
create dialogue between activists and politicians on all
sides of the divide at a time when such contact was unheard
of.

The Encyclopedia of Dublin: Revised and Expanded by Douglas
Bennett (Hardback; 30.00 Euro / 36.00 USD / 24.00 UK; 336
pages)
In the 12 years since first publication of Douglas
Bennett's Encyclopaedia of Dublin, the city it described
has changed beyond recognition. This new edition reflects
those changes. In addition to re-writing most existing
entries, he has included over eighty new ones. Among the
new entries are articles on the Digital Hub, The Dublin
Docklands Development Authority, the Port Tunnel, the new
signage system for orbital routes, the Ringsend Sewage
Treatment Works, the Spire, and Standfast Dick. The
Encyclopaedia of Dublin is the standard reference work on
the city. This new edition will consolidate Douglas
Bennett's reputation as the outstanding contemporary
chronicler of the Irish capital.

Confessions of a Pagan Nun by Kate Horsley (Paperback;
12.00 Euro / 15.00 USD / 9.00 UK; 190 pages)
Cloistered in a stone cell at the monastery of St. Brigid,
a sixth-century Irish nun secretly records the memories of
her Pagan youth, interrupting her assigned task of
transcribing Augustine and Patrick. She also writes of her
fiercely independent mother, whose skill with healing
plants and inner strength she inherited. She writes of her
druid teacher, the brusque but magnetic Giannon, who first
introduced her to the mysteries of written language. But
disturbing events at the cloister keep intervening. As the
monastery is rent by vague and fantastic accusations,
Gwynneve's words become the one force that can save her
from annihilation.
-------------------------------------
The Changeling by Kate Horsely (Large Format Paperback;
16.00 Euro / 20.00 USD / 11.00 UK; 340 pages)
Here, the author of the acclaimed Confessions of a Pagan
Nun takes us to fourteenth-century Ireland for a strange
and luminous tale of the elusive nature of identity and of
triumph in adversity. The Changeling of Finnistuath is the
story of Grey, a peasant girl who is raised as a boy, and
who, until adolescence, never doubts herself to be male.
The revelation of her womanhood marks the beginning of her
journey-including son, whore, warrior, and mother-each of
which brings its own special wisdom, but none of which, she
discovers, can ultimately define her. In the course of her
adventurous life, Grey deals with all the challenges of her
tumultuous age-from political oppression to corrupt Church
hierarchy to the horrors of the Black Death-ultimately
finding peace and a kind of redemption by embracing the
beautifully impermanent quality of identity that her
unusual life has enabled her to understand.

Colors: Ireland from Bombs to Boom by Henry McDonald
(Paperback; 12.00 Euro / 15.00 USD / 8.00 UK; 256 pages)
Henry McDonald's childhood and teenage years were dominated
by the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Growing up in the
Markets - a working-class Catholic district of central
Belfast - he witnessed IRA men and British soldiers being
shot down outside his door. His home was smashed up by the
British troops on Internment Day in 1971, then bombed by
loyalist terrorists four years later. But despite being
caught up in the maelstrom of incipient civil war, McDonald
managed to escape his background. He became a punk rocker
in 1977 and, a year later, joined a group of young soccer
hooligans who followed Irish League side Cliftonville.
Colours, however, is more than just a memoir about the
formative years of someone born in the epicentre of
political and sectarian conflict. McDonald time-travels in
two directions: first, back to the dark days of Ulster's
violent past; second, into the twenty-first century, using
some of the key incidents of his boyhood and youth to
compare the Ireland of the past with the Ireland of today.
It is a journey that takes him from the GPO in Dublin, a
revered site in the history of Irish republicanism where
the 1916 Easter Rising was launched, to the sex shops and
swinging parties of postmodern hedonistic Dublin. Filled
with football thugs, terrorists, paedophile priests, abuse
survivors, drug dealers, comic writers and modern-day
martyrs, Colours exposes Ireland in all its complexity and
diversity, as seen through the eyes of someone who has
experienced first-hand an island and a nation undergoing
revolutionary changes.

Preventing the Future: Why Was Ireland So Poor for Son
Long? by Tom Garvin (Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 16.00 USD /
10.00 UK; 340 pages)
Between the years of the mid thirties through to 1960,
independent Ireland suffered from economic stagnation, and
also went through a period of intense cultural and
psychological repression. While external circumstances
account for much of the stagnation - especially the
depression of the thirties and the Second World War -
"Preventing the Future" argues that the situation was
aggravated by internal circumstances. The key domestic
factor was the failure to extend higher and technical
education and training to larger sections of the
population. This derived from political stalemates in a
small country which derived in turn from the power of the
Catholic Church, the strength of the small-farm community,
the ideological wish to preserve an older society and,
later, gerontocratic tendencies in the political elites and
in society as a whole. While economic growth did accelerate
after 1960, the political stand-off over mass education
resulted in large numbers of young people being denied
preparation for life in the modern world and, arguably,
denied Ireland a sufficient supply of trained labour and
educated citizens. Ireland's Celtic Tiger of the nineties
was in great part driven by a new and highly educated and
technically trained workforce. The political stalemates of
the forties and fifties delayed the initial, incomplete
take-off until the sixties and resulted in the Tiger
arriving nearly a generation later than it might have.

1922: The Birth of Irish Democracy by Tom Garvin
(Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 16.00 USD / 10.00 UK; 244 pages)
This book examines the birth of the Irish state and sets it
in its European historical context. The process of
democratic nation-making reached full fruition while a
vicious civil war was raging, ostensibly fought over points
of political principle but actually deciding whether
Ireland was to be ruled by popular majority will or by a
virtuous but unaccountable minority. Garvin argues that
militant republicanism always lacked popular, democratic
legitimacy. The mainstream Irish nationalist tradition was
moderate and realistic, and it was this nation-building
tradition that triumphed in 1922. The stability and good
order of the Irish state owes much to this victory. In
particular, because the democratic impulse in Irish life
overcame the cult of the virtuous minority, Ireland did not
go the way of so many other newly emerging European states.
There were to be no military dictators or fascist
interludes; instead, there evolved a stable democracy,
which eventually came to include most of those defeated in
1922. 'Tom Garvin ...delivers in full measure those
qualities which those who know his earlier work will be
looking for: new source material, a nose for the big issue,
jugular-graspin Since there are half a dozen of these to
every page, even a big sample could hardly do justice to
the impact of his writing.' Charles Townshend , "Irish
Political Studies".
----------------------------------
The Evolution of Irish Nationalist Politics by Tom Garvin
Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 16.00 USD / 10.00 UK; 262 pages
This classic work studies the growth of nationalism in
Ireland from the middle of the eighteenth century to modern
times. It traces the continuity of tradition from earlier
organisations, such as the United Irishmen and the agrarian
Ribbonmen of the eighteenth century, through the followers
of Daniel O'Connell, the Fenians and the Land League in the
nineteenth century to the Irish political parties of today.
The dual nature of Irish nationalism is shown in sharp
focus. Despite the secular and liberal leanings of many
Irish leaders and theoreticians, their followers were
frequently sectarian and conservative in social outlook.
This book demonstrates how this dual legacy has influenced
the politics of modern Ireland.
---------------------------------------
Nationalist Revolutionaries in Ireland 1858-1928 by Tom
Garvin (Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 16.00 USD / 10.00 UK; 200
pages)
The present-day Republic of Ireland was created by a
revolutionary ‚lite which developed between 1858 and 1914.
This book analyses the social origins of the revolutionary
politicians who became the rulers of Ireland after 1922 and
examines their political preconceptions, ideologies and
prejudices. Tom Garvin argues that in many cases they were
not only influenced by old agrarian grievances or memories
of the Famine, but also, and more immediately, by the
contemporary Catholic abhorrence of the Protestant and
secular world symbolised by London, England and, to some
extent, America.
Drawing on the evidence of private letters and diaries as
well as the popular nationalist journalism of the period,
Nationalist Revolutionaries in Ireland makes a hugely
original contribution to Irish historiography. It
reconstructs the private thoughts behind the public faces
of the emergent leadership of independent Ireland, and also
puts that leadership in comparative international
perspective.
This book, a classic of its type, now appears for the first
time in paperback. It demonstrates all of Tom Garvin's
intellectual and interpretative daring, his willingness to
address major political and historical issues in a wholly
original and thought-provoking way and his search for
historical trails ignored by others.
Highlights from the Previous Issue: ----------
The Castles of County Limerick by Michael J. Carroll
Paperback with endflaps; 17.00 Euro / 21.00 USD / 12.00 UK;
240 pages with maps, full colour and black-and-white
photographs throughout
This book is a companion volume to the author's 'The
Castles and Fortified Houses of West Cork' and 'The Castles
of the Kingdom of Kerry' (both available to purchase from
Read Ireland). Major historical sources have differed as
to the number of castles and fortified houses that existed
in County Limerick, with figures ranging from 100 to 400
being given at various times. Taking the period of castle
building from around 1200 to 1700, this book mentions over
140 castles. Each entry includes a map reference and a
brief description of position and remains, and in many
cases the history and traditions surrounding the castle are
explored in depth. There is also a substantial
introduction dealing with the history of County Limerick in
the medieval period that provides a context for the
discussion of the individual castles.
----------------------------------
Memoir by John McGahern (Hardback; 23.00 Euro / 28.00 USD /
16.00 UK; 280 pages)
This is the story of John McGahern's childhood; of his
mother's death, his father's anger and bafflement, and his
own discovery of literature and his ambition to become a
writer. At the heart of the book is an unembarrassed homage
by a loving son to a woman who protected him and his
sisters from his father's unpredictable moods. His memory
of walks with her in the lanes near their rural home, of
her naming flowers for him and of his joy in her presence,
is recovered with great lyrical tact. The account of her
courageous endurance of illness - with almost no support
from her policeman husband, who was living in his barracks
- is unsentimental and unforgettable. The day their mother
died, the children were carted off to the barracks where
their father the sergeant ruled over a few guards and a
quiet countryside where crime was almost unknown, during
the war years when Ireland was cut off from the outside
world. McGahern describes an adolescence dancing attendance
on a secretive, brutal and mercurial man who had only
spasms of affection to give his bereft children. Often he
reasoned with them by using his fists. McGahern's
description of the fields and quiet roads of Co Leitrim,
one of Ireland's least known counties, catches the subtle
beauties of an often poor landscape of hill and bog. The
memoir is also a great portrait of Ireland in the 1940s and
50s, a time of frugal comfort but also of low expectation
and depression for many people in a country that seemed to
have no future. The author barely escaped being removed
from school to do menial work through his discovery of
books in the library of a friendly, eccentric neighbour. He
found his way to the life of the mind, and a dream that he
could himself write stories in which language and feeling
mattered as much as the form of the tale. This memoir
includes McGahern's memories of Dublin in the 1960s, his
time as a schoolteacher, and his sacking for writing a
banned book (his second novel, "The Dark"). It ends with
his return to live in Leitrim with his wife and the death
of his father, difficult to the last.
---------------------------------------
The Politics of the Irish Civil War by Bill Kissane
(Hardback; 60.00 Euro / 75.00 USD / 40.00 UK; )
Based on extensive archival research this book situates the
Irish civil war in the general process of decolonization in
the twentieth century, and explains why divisions over the
Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921 proved so formative in the
development of the Irish state. Each chapter is devoted to
a particular aspect of the war and many new areas are
explored. These include the role the doctrine of self-
determination played in the Sinn Fein movement, the fate of
numerous peace initiatives, the power struggle between de
Valera and Liam Lynch within the IRA, and the impact of the
civil war on the wider civil society. The last three
chapters explore how the conflict has been interpreted by
the actors themselves, as well as by historians. Combining
perspectives drawn from history and politics, this book
will interest not only students of Irish history, but also
those interested in the comparative study of civil wars.

Irish Book of Death and Flying Ships: From the Chronicles
of Ancient Ireland (Paperback; 10.00 Euro / 13.00 USD /
7.00 UK; 160 pages, with illustrations throughout)
Extracted from a table of cosmical phenomena, epizootics,
famines and pestilences in Ireland (included in The Census
of Ireland for the Year 1851), the monastic and other
annals quoted here cover the earliest time to which
tradition refers (as transmitted by the bards) and up to
the end of the 11th century AD. The history of the early
plagues shows that people tried to account for sudden
outbursts of disease, either by the direct and miraculous
interposition of Providence, or by some peculiar
atmospheric condition. Published to accompany the Irish
Census of 1851, this specially photo-illustrated edition
provides a beautiful history of Celtic Ireland.
-------------------------------------
Illustrated History of Ireland: From 400 A.D. to 1800 A.D.
by C.F. Cusack (Hardback; 13.00 Euro / 16.50 USD / 10.00
UK; 670 pages)
With evocative black and white drawings, this is a thorough
yet accessible history of Ireland, written in 1868 and
featuring the famous and infamous inhabitants and events of
Ireland.
-----------------------------------
Siege at Jadotville: The Irish Army's Forgotten Battle by
Declan Power (Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 18.00 USD / 9.00 UK;
300 pages)
During the course of operations, a company of Irish troops
was deployed to protect the inhabitants of the village of
Jadotville. Not long after deployment, the troops found
themselves heavily out-numbered and engaged in a pitched
battle with native Congolese soldiers led by white
mercenary officers.
In addition to the overwhelming odds, the Irish also had to
contend with being strafed by a jet and had no airpower or
anti-aircraft defences to defend themselves.
Appeals for re-supply from UN forces were to no avail.
There were a number of attempts by Irish troops in the
vicinity to mount a relief operation for their surrounded
comrades. However, a mixture of superior fire, physical
obstacles and political machinations within the UN led to
abject failure. But after numerous rescue attempts failed
and the Irish had fought to their last rounds of ammunition
and were already using bayonets in hand-to-hand-fighting,
Comdt Quinlan decided against the needless bloodshed of his
men and surrendered.
---------------------------------
Kitty O'Shea: An Irish Affair by Jane Jordan (Hardback;
25.00 Euro / 30.00 USD / 20.00 UK; 277 pages)
Kitty O'Shea (1846-1921) was at the centre of one of the
most notorious scandals of the late Victorian Age - a
scandal which brought the downfall of Charles Stewart
Parnell, the leader of the movement for Home Rule for
Ireland and crippling damage to the movement itself. In
1889, Parnell was named co-respondent in a divorce suit
brought by one of his own MPs, Captain Willie O'Shea.
Alleged to have conducted an ten-year affair with Mrs
Katherine O'Shea, Parnell was also revealed to be the
father of the three youngest O'Shea children. The divorce
and the details it exposed was a great public scandal in
Victorian England and Catholic Ireland. Yet Parnell refused
to resign from his leadership of the Home Rule movement,
which resulted in the split of his party. In this
compelling new biography, Jane Jordan explores the central,
still unanswered questions:Why did Parnell risk the
political future of Ireland (and his own) in conducting an
affair with a married woman? And was O'Shea a duped
husband, as he maintained, or did he connive with his
wife's adultery in order to further his own political
career?
---------------------------------------
Till Death Do Us Part by Siobhan Gaffney (Paperback; 11.00
Euro / 14.00 USD / 8.00 UK; 200 pages)
Colin Whelan and Mary Gough appeared to be like any young,
married couple. They had been sweethearts and Colin won
Mary's heart a few years before their wedding. The couple
had been married just six months when Whelan called an
ambulance saying his wife was badly injured as a result of
falling down the stairs in the family home in Balbriggan,
in north Co. Dublin. A post-mortem, however, established
that she had been strangled. Whelan was charged with his
wife's murder in April 2001 but he disappeared while on
bail in March 2003 before the trial began. He was thought
to have taken his own life after his Peugeot 206 and a
number of personal possessions were found near the sea at
Howth's Head in Co Dublin. A major sea, land and air search
was carried out but his body was never found.
About 15 months later an Irish holidaymaker in Majorca
recognised Whelan working in a bar and alerted the
authorities. This is the true story of what happened. Court
reporter, Siobhan Gaffney, explores the homicidal
tendencies of Colin Whelan, which emerged before he even
wed his young wife.
------------------------------------
Ventry Calling by Bearnard O Lobhaing (Paperback; 13.00
Euro / 17.50 USD / 10.00 UK; 128 pages)
Ventry Calling is a translation of Bearnard O Lubhaing's
Ceann Tra hAon - a memoir originally published in 1998 by
Coisceim and now translated by Gabriel Fitzmaurice. Ventry
was a parish of two religions, Catholic and Protestant,
which learned to live together. O Lubhaing's account of the
religious and educational implications of this co-existence
is carefully recalled. The rich archaeological heritage of
the area, the feast days of the year, life in West Kerry
during the Second World War, encounters with the Blasket
Island heritage, are all lovingly related in this
authoritative account by a Ventry native who went on to
become a national school teacher, a member of An Taisce and
a committed Gaelgeoir.

Childhood Interrupted: Growing Up Under the Cruel Regime of
the Sisters of Mercy by Kathleen O'Malley (Large Format
Paperback; 13.00 Euro / 17.50 USD / 10.00 UK; 244 pages)
In 1950, Kathleen O'Malley and her two sisters were legally
abducted from their mother and placed in an industrial
school ran by the Sisters of Mercy order of nuns, who also
ran the notorious Magdalene Homes. The rape of eight-year-
old Kathleen by a neighbour had triggered their removal -
the Irish authorities ruling that her mother must have been
negligent. They were only allowed a strictly supervised
visit once a year, until they were permitted to leave the
harsh and cruel regime of the institution at the age of
sixteen. But Kate survived her traumatic childhood and
escaped her past by leaving for England and then Australia
when the British government offered a scheme to encourage
settlement there. Fleeing her past again, Kate worked as a
governess in Paris and then returned to England where she
trained as a beautician at Elizabeth Arden. She married and
had a son. A turning point in Kate's life came when she
applied to become a magistrate and realised that she had to
confront her hidden personal history and make it public.
This is her inspiring story.
----------------------------
Collected Poems of Patrick Kavanagh (Paperback; 14.00 Euro
/ 19.00 USD / 11.00 UK; 300 pages)
The centenary of Patrick Kavanagh's birth in 2004 provides
the ideal opportunity to reappraise one of modern Ireland's
greatest poets. From a harsh, humble background that he
himself described so brilliantly, Kavanagh burst through
immense constraints to redefine Irish poetry - a poetry
appropriate for a fully independent country, both
politically and culturally. Moving beyond Irish verse's
preoccupation with history, national politics and identity,
he turned to the land and scenery of his native Inniskeen,
portraying the closely-observed minutiae of everyday rural
and urban life in an uninhibited, groundbreaking style.
Lucid, various, direct and engaging, Kavanagh's poems have
a unique place in the canon and a unique accessibility.
This major new edition is the culmination of many years of
work by Antoinette Quinn in creating authoritative texts
for Kavanagh's poetry - from his early works such as
Inniskeen Road: July Evening' to his masterpiece, the epic
The Great Hunger', allowing us to see the development of
Kavanagh's genius as never before.
