*LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE 2020* From the Booker-winning Irish author, a brilliant and moving novel about fame, sexual power, and a daughter's search to understand her mother's hidden truths. This is the story of Irish theatre legend Katherine O'Dell, as told by her daughter Norah. It tells of early stardom in Hollywood, of highs and lows on the stages of Dublin and London's West End. Katherine's life is a grand performance, with young Norah watching from the wings. But this romance between mother and daughter cannot survive Katherine's past, or the world's damage. As Norah uncovers her mother's secrets, she acquires a few of her own. Then, fame turns to infamy when Katherine decides to commit a bizarre crime. Actress is about a daughter's search for the truth: the dark secret in the bright star, and what drove Katherine finally mad. Brilliantly capturing the glamour of post-war America and the shabbiness of 1970s Dublin, Actress is an intensely moving, disturbing novel about mothers and daughters and the men in their lives. A scintillating examination of the corrosive nature of celebrity, it is also a sad and triumphant tale of freedom from bad love, and from the avid gaze of the crowd. **A SUNDAY TIMES BOOK TO WATCH OUT FOR IN 2020**

Shortlisted for the 2015 Costa Novel Award Longlisted for the 2015 Man Booker Prize Winner of the Irish Novel of the Year 2015 Hanna, Dan, Constance and Emmet return to the west coast of Ireland for a final family Christmas in the home their mother is about to sell.

The Forgotten Waltz is a poignant exploration of desire and the swift descent into longing. Set in Terenure, a Dublin suburb, during the winter of 2009, Gina Moynihan reflects on her passionate affair with Seán Vallely, whom she considers 'the love of her life.' As snow blankets the city, she recalls their blissful yet denial-filled afternoons spent in hotel rooms. The stillness of the snowy landscape contrasts with her memories, as she anticipates the arrival of Seán's twelve-year-old daughter, Evie, who complicates her life further. This novel unveils a tapestry of secrets and the intricate dynamics of human relationships, showcasing Enright's keen insight into the nuances of everyday life. With a sharp eye for detail, she captures the emotional turbulence of families, marriage, and the complexities of middle age. The narrative is infused with humor and a deep understanding of love, as it follows a flawed yet unforgettable heroine on her heartfelt journey. Enright's masterful writing shines through, making this work a remarkable blend of intelligence, passion, and distinction.

Lebenspralle Geschichten von der Booker-Preisträgerin„Es ist das große Rätsel der Menschheit: Was Männer wollen. Und was sie anzurichten bereit sind, um es zu kriegen.“ „Alles, was du wünschst“ versammelt neunzehn Geschichten der Booker-Preisträgerin Anne Enright, Geschichten über das Chaos der Liebe und über den manchmal doch nicht ganz so kleinen Unterschied, Geschichten voller Lebenskraft, die ihren dunklen Kern meisterhaft hinter einer strahlenden Hülle zu verbergen wissen. Kitty arbeitet in der Bettenabteilung eines Kaufhauses. Gerade wurden Rolltreppen installiert, eine große Neuerung, an die sie sich nicht so recht gewöhnen mag, aber es ist sowieso nichts mehr los bei den Betten. Die Kunden scheinen dringend Schlaf zu brauchen – von Verliebtheit keine Spur. Doch mit dem Auftauchen der Rolltreppen nimmt plötzlich auch Kittys Leben Fahrt auf: Sie, bereits über vierzig, ist noch einmal schwanger geworden! Da bleiben eines Tages die Rolltreppen stehen …Die Irin Anne Enright spricht auf unerschrockene Art und Weise aus, wie es im Leben vieler Frauen aussieht. Frauen, die von den Geistern des Lebens verfolgt werden, das sie hätten führen können, die Möglichkeiten erahnen und doch zu sehr in ihrem Alltag gefangen sind, um sie zu ergreifen. Ein faszinierendes und zugleich verstörendes Leseerlebnis, so präzise und bildstark wie Enrights preisgekrönter Roman „Das Familientreffen“.

Prózy Anne Enrightové jsou pověstné ponurostí a nesmiřitelností, s níž prezentuje současné Irsko. Román se odehrává během několika týdnů života čtyřicátnice Veroniky, jež se musí vypořádat s nepříjemným úkolem – přivézt z Anglie do Irska mrtvé tělo bratra Liama, alkoholika, který spáchal sebevraždu na Brightonské pláži. Pro Veroniku není lehké vyrovnat se se smrtí milovaného bratra, mnohem hůře však zvládá vzpomínky, které jeho dobrovolný odchod ze světa vyvolal. Vzpomínky na dětství, kdy žila spolu s jedenácti sourozenci. Pro většinu dětí bývá dětství jakýmsi záchytným bodem, místem, ke kterému se mohou v myšlenkách vracet. Ne tak v případě Veroniky a jejích sourozenců. Pro ně je dětství velkou noční můrou; nešlo jen o předvídatelnou chudobu a skromné podmínky, ale především o nezájem, s nímž k nim matka přistupovala. Čekali bychom, že právě tíživá situace rodinu semkne, ale v případě Hegartyových to mělo přesně opačný efekt: ničeho se nedostávalo, ani materiálního zabezpečení, ani lásky. Nelze se pak divit, že nikdo ze sourozenců není bez následků – pijou, jsou nespokojeni v soukromém i pracovním životě, nevěří v boha, závidí si. Veronika si bohužel vybavuje i situace, kdy rodinný přítel sexuálně zneužíval jejího bratra. Její úsilí pochopit důvody bratrovy sebevraždy je nakonec korunováno úspěchem, jen díky němu se jí daří vyrovnat se s vlastní minulostí. Román získal v roce 2007 prestižní Man Bookerovu cenu.

Anne Enright, one of Ireland's most remarkable writers, has just had two babies: a girl and a boy. An antidote to the high-minded, polemical 'How-to' baby manuals, Making Babies also bears a visceral and dreamlike witness to the first years of parenthood.

"The Pleasure of Eliza Lynch" is a captivating novel inspired by the life of an Irishwoman who became a key figure in Paraguay's history. Eliza's tumultuous relationship with dictator Francisco Solano López leads her through love, loss, and societal scorn, ultimately shaping her legacy as both a heroine and a controversial figure.

Anne Enright is one of the most exciting writers of Ireland's younger generation, a beguiling storyteller The Seattle Times has praised for "the absolutely original way she writes about women and their adventures to know who they are through sex, despair, wit and single-minded courage." In What Are You Like?, Maria Delahunty, raised by her grieving father after her mother died during childbirth, finds herself in her twenties awash in nameless longing and in love with the wrong man. Going through his things, she finds a photograph that will end up unraveling a secret more devastating than her father's long mourning, but more pregnant with possibility. Moving between Dublin, New York, and London, What Are You Like? is a breathtaking novel of twins and irretrievable losses, of a woman haunted by her missing self, and of our helplessness against our fierce connection to our origins. It is a novel, Newsday wrote, that "announces [Enright's] excellence as though it were stamped on the cover in boldface."

Enrights Figuren brechen mit Konventionen und zeigen deren Absurdität. Die kurzen Erzählungen sind unterhaltsam, komisch und eindrucksvoll, wobei der Witz und die Dringlichkeit aus präzisen Beobachtungen und sprachlicher Intensität entstehen.

Op een avond in 1995 logeren enkele uiteenlopende figuren in een verlopen hotel in Dublin. Geschreven door zeven Ierse auteurs, maar het is aan de lezer te raden wie wat schreef.

The hotel has stood on Dublin's quays since the 1920s, but its glory days are over. Most of the guests and staff we meet are escaping from something. Their stories are told in different chapters by seven Irish writers, including Roddy Doyle, Anne Enright and Colm Toibin.
