Louise Kennedy recommends

Lo Fi (2024)
Liz Riggs
"Lo Fi has the intimacy of a Sally Rooney novel and the raw yearning of a Lucinda Williams song. A gorgeous, accomplished novel."

The Alternatives (2024)
Caoilinn Hughes
"Caoilinn Hughes is one of the most intelligent, surprising, and delightful writers around. The Alternatives made me laugh, cry, and think. Any one of the Flattery sisters would have made a compelling story; together they are glorious, as is this novel."

The Wren, the Wren (2023)
Anne Enright
"These pages practically crackle with intelligence, compassion and wit. Phil McDaragh is so real I almost googled him. As for the women he left ... Carmel's mothering made me blush with recognition and I wanted the world for Nell. The Wren, The Wren might just be Anne Enright's best yet."
