Although violence against women had also figured, the years since 2020 have seen the publication of at least a dozen crime novels in which gender violence plays a substantial role, perhaps reflecting concerns which are at last finding a voice in Ireland.engPoesía irlandesaIrlandaPoesia irlandesa contemporaneaLiteratura irlandesaIrish poetryIrelandContemporary Irish poetryIrish literaturebook partembargoed access
