The third novel from the author of the Baileys Prize-winning The Glorious Heresies
Klappentext zu „The Rules of Revelation “
Lisa McInerney writes the type of fiction that is both beautifully crafted and immensely enjoyable' Louise O'NeillEverywhere the water was rising. Sex, drugs and rock and roll; that was all that was left.
Ireland's having an identity crisis, rent's through the roof, and Cork is producing a profligate number of poets. A band called Lord Urchin bursts onto the scene with an insufferable mission statement, and four strangers have their lives turned inside-out. Mel comes back to Cork from Brexit Britain, ill-equipped to deal with the resurgence of a family scandal. Eleventh-hour revolutionary Maureen won't stop until she's rewritten her city's history. Former sex worker Georgie is urged to tell her story by a journalist with her own agenda. And Karine prepares for her ex-boyfriend's return, knowing that he's going to warp all around him . . . and that she's going to help him do it. This is a novel about art and its relationship to class and transgression, about trauma, gender, obsession and love. And about great nationalists, bad mothers, and a debut album that might drive the whole of Ireland mad.

Pressezitat
It's got all the crackle and verve and mad vivid life we've come to expect but it's so open-hearted and warm, too, and utterly engrossing - it's her best work to date, which is really saying something KEVIN BARRY
