Queer whispers : gay and lesbian voices of Irish fiction
José Carregal, Mary Dorcey
Before Ireland decriminalized same-sex sexual activity in 1993, the nation was essentially devoid of an LGBTQ literary tradition, due to the political and cultural dominance of conservative, censorious ideology. Though the situation has drastically changed in some ways since then -- the first nation to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote, Ireland is today hailed as a beacon of equal rights -- there is still much work to be done to fully claim parity, visibility, and recognition for all LGBTQ artists.
