Recenzii
Eoin Flannery's Form, Affect and Debt in Post-Celtic Tiger Irish Fiction is a compelling study of the intimate relations between finance and fiction in the wake of the Celtic Tiger. Readers will be truly indebted to this subtle and enlightening study for many years to come. It is pleasingly elegant and playfully entertaining, and it offers a startling account of the tangled co-existence of wealth creation and creative writing.
It is hard not to think that this period in our recent history warrants more attention. And in Form, Affect and Debt in Post-Celtic Tiger Irish Fiction, Eóin Flannery, offers a crucial intervention.This is a work of literary criticism before it is a work of social analysis and Flannery's insights offer readers a renewed appreciation of the works under discussion.
Flannery's consideration of the relationship between form and temporality in post-Celtic Tiger Irish fiction is very strong. He proposes that this implies all too easily an element of historic determinism to Celtic Tiger affluence in the first place, and then to the crash.Flannery's work stands as an important contribution to what he flags as the growing field of 'economic humanities' in Irish studies and contemporary literary studies, providing a rich and detailed reading of twenty-first century Irish fiction, as well as the philosophical and political hinterlands informing it.
Form, Affect and Debt in Post-Celtic Tiger Irish Fiction offers a topical and theoretically astute exploration of the way the novel reflects upon the legacies of the era. [and] the convergence of finance narratives of risk, guilt, and indebtedness with narratives of moral responsibility are incisively explicated by Flannery. Flannery's study exposes the distorted promises and the fractured temporalities of the fictions of the post-Celtic Tiger literary scene. Guilt, shame, confusion are the affects he traces across these texts, transmitted primarily via masculine experiences of disempowerment and doubt.this is, without doubt, an erudite and stimulating intervention in contemporary Irish Studies that will prompt further necessary discussions of the cultural mediations of and reactions to neoliberal capitalism in Irish society.
