'One of the best collections you'll read this year' Sunday Times
'Wild, witty stories . . . Exhilarating' Observer

Since his landmark debut collection, There Are Little Kingdoms, and its award-winning sequel in 2012, Dark Lies the Island, Kevin Barry has been acclaimed as one of the world’s most accomplished and gifted short story writers.

Barry’s lyric intensity, the vitality of his comedy and the darkness of his vision recall the work of masters of the genre like Flannery O’Connor and William Trevor, but he has forged a style which is patently his own.

In this rapturous third collection, we encounter a ragbag of west of Ireland characters, many on the cusp between love and catastrophe, heartbreak and epiphany, resignation and hope. These stories show an Ireland in a condition of great flux but also as a place where older rhythms, and an older magic, somehow persist.

There Are Little Kingdoms (Canons Book 60) 6 Apr, 2017

by Kevin Barry

( 40 )

₹ 418.95

This award-winning story collection summons all the laughter, darkness and intensity of contemporary Irish life. A pair of fast girls court trouble as they cool their heels on a slow night in a small town. Lonesome hillwalkers take to the high reaches in pursuit of a saving embrace. A bewildered man steps off a country bus in search of his identity - and a stiff drink.

These stories, filled with a grand sense of life's absurdity, form a remarkably surefooted collection that reads like a modern-day Dubliners.

Winner of the Sunday Times short story prize

Winner of the Edge Hill short story prize

A kiss that just won't happen. A disco at the end of the world. A teenage goth on a terror mission. And OAP kiddie-snatchers, and scouse real-ale enthusiasts, and occult weirdness in the backwoods...

Dark Lies the Island is a collection of unpredictable stories about love and cruelty, crimes, desperation, and hope from the man Irvine Welsh has described as 'the most arresting and original writer to emerge from these islands in years'. Every page is shot through with the riotous humour, sympathy and blistering language that mark Kevin Barry as a pure entertainer and a unique teller of tales.

**Winner of the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award**

‘A electrifying masterpiece’ Joseph O’Connor

The once-great city of Bohane on the west coast of Ireland is on its knees, infested by vice and split along tribal lines. There are still some posh parts of town, but it is in the slums and backstreets of Smoketown, the tower blocks of the Northside Rises and the eerie bogs of Big Nothin' that the city really lives.

For years, Bohane has been in the cool grip of Logan Hartnett, the dapper godfather of the Hartnett Fancy gang. But there's trouble in the air. But now they say his old nemesis is back in town; his trusted henchmen are getting ambitious; and there's trouble in the air...

Beatlebone (German Edition) 15 Sep, 2020

by Kevin Barry , Bernhard Robben

₹ 1,389.15

1978: John Lennon flieht aus New York, um auf sein Inselchen vor der irischen Westküste zu fahren, das er neun Jahre zuvor gekauft hat. Zurück lässt er Gedanken an den drohenden 40. Geburtstag, eine tiefe Schaffenskrise und die quälende Erinnerung an seine Eltern. Nur drei Tage in beruhigender Einsamkeit verbringen - mehr verlangt er gar nicht. Doch als er sich in die Hände eines mit viel irischem Charme und Schrulligkeit ausgestatteten Chauffeurs begibt, beginnt eine hindernisreiche Magical Mystery Tour.
"Beatlebone" führt einen in jeder Hinsicht an die Grenzen - der westlichen Welt, der geistigen Gesundheit, des Ruhms, der Worte. Und, nicht zuletzt, an die des Romans, dorthin, wo er auf seine Doppelgängerin trifft, die Autobiographie. Denn diese faszinierende Erzählung aus dem Kopf eines der größten Popgiganten des 20. Jahrhunderts wird unversehens zu einer Meditation über den kreativen Prozess im allgemeinen, über die verblüffende Verbindung von Autor und Figur. Ihr Schöpfer, Kevin Barry, gilt vor allem wegen seiner überbordend lyrischen Sprache als der musikalische Dichterfürst Irlands und als eines seiner größten literarischen Talente.

Beatlebone (Rayos Globulares nº 24) (Spanish Edition) 5 Sep, 2016

John Lennon compró una isla en Irlanda. Ésta es la historia del fascinante viaje que hizo diez años después para encontrar la isla, pero sobre todo para encontrarse a sí mismo.

Huyendo de la prensa, Lennon intenta calmar el espíritu y superar así los fantasmas que lo persiguen y le bloquean la creatividad. Para lograr esto, un conductor irlandés de lo más peculiar le hará de guía espiritual improvisado.

Después de Ciudad de Bohane, Beatlebone (obra ganadora del Premio Goldsmith 2015) es la segunda incursión de Kevin Barry en el campo de la novela, con resultados igualmente extraordinarios. Con un dominio sublime del lenguaje y de los personajes, Barry nos muestra al Lennon más auténtico, el de humor cambiante y el ánimo atribulado, y nos sumerge en la exploración del pasado propio, los orígenes, lo que hemos hecho y lo que hemos dejado por hacer.

These are the recollections seen through the eyes of a young Irish boy growing up in Notting Hill and Chelsea in the 1950s and 1960s with its trials and tribulations.
