Produktbeschreibung
For thirty years Anne Enright has been paying attention: casting her lucid and distinctive gaze across the world, literature and her own life, and gifting us with her precise judgement. These collated essays across Anne Enright's career take us from Galway to Honduras, from personal self-examination to urgent political writing. She interprets Sophocles' Antigone through the lens of the Mother and Baby Homes in Galway, writes on the 2018 abortion referendum, and on sexual violence in the aftermath of #MeToo. Her essays on writers including Alice Munro, Toni Morrison, James Joyce and Angela Carter amongst others offer new perspectives on these writers through Enright's signature wit and erudition. Attention brings Anne Enright's wide-ranging cultural criticism, literary and autobiographical writing together for the first time. Overarching questions around the subtleties of bodily autonomy, complex family dynamics and the challenges of intimacy preoccupy Anne Enright's award-winning and widely loved fiction. These essays disseminate how Enright has grappled with them in her non-fiction, and is a seminal collection from one of our most distinguished literary voices.
