The study acknowledges Irelands history of damaging silences and considers its legacies, but it also underscores how silence can serve as a valuable, even productive, means of expression. From a wide range of critical perspectives, the individual essays address, among other issues, the conspiracies of silence in Catholic Ireland, the silenced structural oppression of Celtic Tiger Ireland, the recovery of silenced stories/voices of the past and their examination in the present, as well as millennial disaffection and the silencing of vulnerability in todays neoliberal Ireland. The book s attention to silence provides a rich vocabulary for understanding what unfolds in the quiet interstices of Irish writing from recent decades. This study also invokes the past to understand the present and, thus, demonstrates the continuities and discontinuities that define how silence operates in Irish culture. M. Teresa Caneda-Cabrera is Senior Lecturer in English at the University of Vigo, Spain. She is the author of a monograph on A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and sits on the Editorial Board of European Joyce Studies. Her research on silence and vulnerability in contemporary Irish fiction has been funded by the Spanish MCIN, AEI and ERDF. She is the co-editor of Atlantic Communities: Translation, Mobility, Hospitality (2023) and the editor of Telling Truths: Evelyn Conlon and the Task of Writing (2023). Jos Carregal-Romero lectures at the University of Huelva, Spain. His research focuses on the intersections between gender and sexuality in contemporary Irish literature, with a keen interest in silence and vulnerability. He is the co-editor of Revolutionary Ireland, 19162016: Historical Facts & Social Transformations Re-Assessed (2020) and the author of Queer Whispers: Gay and Lesbian Voices of Irish Fiction (2021). 001469425 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on July 25, 2023). 001469425 650_0 $$aEnglish fiction$$y20th century$$xIrish authors$$xHistory and criticism. 001469425 650_0 $$aEnglish fiction$$y21st century$$xIrish authors$$xHistory and criticism. 001469425 650_0 $$aIrish fiction$$y20th century$$xHistory and criticism. 001469425 650_0 $$aIrish fiction$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 001469425 650_0 $$aSilence in literature. 001469425 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001469425 7001_ $$aCaneda-Cabrera, M.
