Product Description: A selection of Swift's Irish pamphlets, illustrating the full range of his interests and commitments. Also included is a special appendix which lists all his prose writing on Ireland.

It offers critical commentary on the full range of Banville’s fiction (including the plays) and views that fiction in the contexts of contemporary critical theory.

The introduction surveys Banville’s relation to Irish, European and American writing, and is followed by close textual analyses of each of Banville’s texts, from Long Lankin to The Untouchable.
