Produktbeschreibung

Garrett O'Mahony would like to be your friend on Facebook.

One of the best rugby players Ireland has seen in years, a guy I happened to live with nearly a decade ago. But we were more than just roommates, weren't we Garrett?

Back then, Garrett was just another Irish guy pretending like he wasn't gay; back then, it was obvious that Garrett was just pretending.

I've changed since then. Ireland has changed since then.

Has Garrett changed since then too?

I guess there's only one way to find out?

~~~

Tackling The Issue is inspired by gay pornography, cinematography and magazines, especially those of the 90s and 00s. Part erotica and part M/M romance,the fictional novella touches on the psychology, expectations and internalised homophobia of the LGBTQ community in Ireland, especially in the aftermath of the marriage referendum of 2015.

Autorenporträt

Since a young age, Ken Mooney wanted to save the world. Or at least to talk about it. It's sort of an ongoing theme of his work, and he doesn't realise that until after he's written something, only to find out that it's bang on-trend, and that just makes him love it all the more.

Ken has worked in TV advertising, market research and even got his start in the dreaded world of call-centres. He holds an MA in English from Trinity College Dublin. Stories have always been his first love, and in amongst reading all those comics, watching all those films and playing all those video games, he wanted to share his own stories.

Ken has written two fantasy novels: Godhead and The Hades Contract bring the Greek gods to the present day in a dark horror, with a number of complimentary shorts. He has contributed to a number of anthologies and published two non-fiction books: The Little Book Of The End Of The World is a tongue-in-cheek look at different thoughts and theories on the end of the world and The Astrocytoma Diaries chronicles that time he got diagnosed with a brain tumour. He has also written Tackling The Issue and After The Tackle, gay romance focusing on some of the angers and fears in the LGBTQ community,

Ken lives in Dublin, Ireland with his husband.
