Northern Irish Literature, 1975-2006 and its companion volume, Northern Irish Literature 1956-75, examine the contexts for literary production over the past fifty years,
addressing the troubled intersections of literature, history and politics. Chapters focus on a particular period of the 'Troubles', and offer detailed readings of both canonical and
lesser-known texts by writers from different traditions and generations. Unlike existing studies which often consider a single author or genre, these volumes explore the diversity that is
Northern Irish literature and emphasises how writers and texts engage with one another.
