"This is a book of small rituals and oddities, and these give it a lightness that it might otherwise lose under its rather grand-seeming subject."—The Irish Times
Featuring essays from fifty-two Irish authors, including John Banville, Paul Murray, Sean O’Reilly, Claire Kilroy, and Sophia Hillan, The Danger and the Glory gives us a fantastic insight into how these great writers do what they do.
