Precarious childhood in post-independence Ireland

By: Moira Maguire

This fascinating study reveals the desperate plight of the poor, illegitimate, and abused children in an Irish society that claimed to cherish and hold them sacred, but in fact marginalized and ignored them. It examines closely the history of childhood in post-independence Ireland, and breaks new ground in examining the role of the state in caring for its most vulnerable citizens. Maguire gives voice to those children who formed a significant proportion of the Irish population, but have been ignored in the historical record. More importantly, she uses their experiences as lenses through which to re-evaluate Catholic influence in post-independence Irish society. An essential and timely work, this book offers a different interpretation of the relationships between the Catholic Church, the political establishment, and Irish people; important for those interested in the history of family and childhood as well as twentieth-century Irish social history.

Making Representations

Museums in the Post-Colonial Era

By: Moira G. Simpson

Drawing upon material from Britain, Canada, the United States, Australia and New Zealand, Making Representations explores the ways in which museums and anthropologists are responding to pressures in the field by developing new policies and practices, and forging new relationships with communities. Simpson examines the increasing number of museums and cultural centres being established by indigenous and immigrant communities as they take control of the interpretive process and challenge the traditional role of the museum. Museum studies students and museum professionals will all find this a stimulating and valuable read.

Dinner; Dying for It; A Vampire Story; Welcome to Thebes; Handbagged

By: Moira Buffini

Dinner 'A cracking black comedy that has you laughing uproariously one moment and jumping with shock the next . . . For those with strong stomachs, Dinner offers a delicious feast of comedy and the macabre.' Daily Telegraph Dying for It 'A subversive Russian classic: one that addresses the ultimate question of "why live?"' Guardian 'The play, freely adapted by Moira Buffini, presents a glorious gallery of comic types.' Independent Welcome to Thebes 'It's thrilling. Moira Buffini's strange and daring play is moving, wise, funny, horrifying . . . Full of resonances you weren't expecting, jokes you didn't see coming . . . It raises huge questions with wit.' The Times Handbagged Winner of the 2014 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in an Affiliate Theatre 'A phenomenon.' Sunday Telegraph 'Perfectly pitched between the comic and the serious.' Guardian

Pandemonium

The Chase after Midnight

By: Moira Barrie

After graduating from university, twenty-four-year-old Ava Buchanan has moved to a tiny town in Pennsylvania in order to keep her mother company. Victor—her brother and a member of a secretive military organization—calls her every year around her birthday for an awkward conversation, but otherwise, her life is generally peaceful. Recently, however, Ava’s dreams have turned odd and foreboding: a handsome protector emerges to save her as the world she knows becomes a postapocalyptic wasteland. Add to that the dark and unexpected presence of Victor in her life for more than the occasional call, and Ava begins to feel like something is amiss. At first, she is able to convince herself her dreams are just that: dreams. But she won’t be so lucky. As Ava unravels the mystery of her destiny and connects with people who can help her fulfill it, she discovers there are dark forces intent on destroying her. In this novel, a young woman having strange dreams discovers that she has powers beyond her imagination—and must face equally unimaginable dangers.
