Brilantní vypravěč Billy O'Callaghan ve novém románu přináší velký příběh rodinných vztahů, nevlídných historických okolností a těžkého života v chudé a zkoušené zemi. Tři postavy, tři osudy a téměř sto let irské historie. Jer má jizvy na duši a pár let po první světové válce ho pronásledují horečnaté vidiny ze zákopů. Nancy se za velkého hladomoru protlouká, jak se dá, a hledá své místo pod sluncem. Stařičká Nellie, Jerova dcera, v laciném městském bytě rekapituluje příběh své rodiny i dvacátého století. Doživotí je románem o lidské cti a důstojnosti, o době hladu a nouze a také příběhem o tom, co s člověkem dokáže provést láska v nejrůznějších podobách. "Vynikající a dojemný román. O'Callaghan je jedním z našich nejlepších spisovatelů," napsal John Banville.

Liam O'Callaghan's revelatory Blood and Thunder shows that the rise of Irish rugby is inextricable from the tensions, debates and divisions – of politics, religion and class – that have defined modern Irish history. Despite the political partition of the island, Ireland competes at rugby internationally with an all-island team – and with a bespoke anthem that nobody loves but everyone tolerates. Ireland has become a leading rugby nation despite its tiny population and the fact that the sport is only the fourth most popular team game on the island by participation.In Blood and Thunder, O’Callaghan traces the dramatic evolution whereby a rugby nation that was deeply attached to amateurism has made such a dramatic success of professionalism. From the sequence of events that led Ireland's private Catholic secondary schools to embrace rugby, to the controversies and crises that have shaken Irish rugby – including the Northern Troubles, the Belfast rape trial, and the rising toll of head injuries – Blood and Thunder tells the rich and fascinating story of Irish rugby. Blood and Thunder is more than a social and political history of Irish rugby.It is also a shadow-history of modern Ireland, rooted in brilliant original research and packed ...

"Ruth O''Callaghan''s poetry has a rare ability to sustain the highest emotional and spiritual stakes." Fiona Sampson.Philosophical, exuberant, incantatory, sensual and meditative, these poems embrace the complexities of death, loss and love. Although observed with a detached eye their unflinching truth is simultaneously intimate and compassionate. The poems, written in both formal and free verse, constantly explore the boundaries within the human situation. The poet''s fascination with words and language lend both a lyricism and restraint while her rhythms echo those of time, love, loss and grief.Ruth O''Callaghan has five collections of poetry, has been translated into six languages and is much anthologised. Invited to read throughout Asia, Europe, and the U.S.A., she was awarded a gold medal for poetry at the XXX WCP in Taiwan. The Arts Council sponsored her visit to Mongolia to collaborate with women poets and this resulted in a book and a CD. An international competition adjudicator and editor, she is also a judge for the Koestler whose awards encourage prisoners to participate in the Arts. She hosts two poetry venues in London - the revenue from these events support three Cold Weather Shelters.

Revised edition of this biography with a twist about Emily Brontë, the subject of major 2022 film Emily starring Emma Mackey.Brontë scholar Claire O''Callaghan conjures a new image of Emily Brontë and rehabilitates her reputation by exploring the themes of her life and work. We discover that Emily was a thoroughly modern woman.Emily Brontë occupies a special place in the English literary canon. And rightly so: the incomparable Wuthering Heights is a novel that has bewitched us for almost 200 years, and the character of Heathcliff is, perhaps, the ultimate romantic hero—and villain. But Emily herself remains an enigmatic figure, often portrayed as awkward, as a misanthrope, as no normal being. That''s the conventional wisdom on Emily as a person, but is it accurate? Is it fair?It''s time for the real Emily Brontë to please stand up.

The first in a brand-new cosy fantasy series from Kiri Callaghan, with an enchanting paranormal twist and a magical murder mystery to solve. ***Worlds collide when changeling Avery Hemlock and human Saga Trygg team up to solve magical murders in London. When a rise in London's supernatural crime puts Fey society at risk of discovery, the Winter Council turns to an unlikely solution: Avery Hemlock, the changeling they sentenced to 500 Years of Nightmares. Inherently lacking social grace and missing approximately two centuries of world knowledge, Avery must find a way to acclimate and solve the case or lose her probationary freedom. After being left at the altar and dropping out of medical school, Saga Trygg attempts to rekindle her faith in life, humanity, and witchcraft. But when her new neighbour, Avery, accidentally reveals the Fey that have been living among humanity all along, Saga realises magic is far more than prayers, intention, and candles. Each faced with navigating an unfamiliar world, the two form an unexpected partnership – but shortly into Avery's investigation, they discover the threat might be closer to Saga than either of them imagined, and Avery will do anything to protect the first friend she's had ...
