Hugo Hamilton recommends
thumb
Trouble the Living (2023)
Francesca McDonnell Capossela
"Francesca Capossela writes with outsider/insider clarity, following the trajectory of a brutal sectarian crime from Northern Ireland to the US and back with all its guilt and shame. A debut novel full of intrigue and heart."
thumb
City of Bohane (2011)
Kevin Barry
"An extreme adventure in pure language and fictional daring."
thumb
Animals (2006)
Keith Ridgway
"Only the strongest writer can carry off this daring examination of emptiness at the heart of our global society. Animals is funny, grotesque, absurdly powerful and unsettling, like walking across a room full of trapdoors."
