Flann O'Brien

Gallows Humour

Herausgeber: Borg, Ruben; Fagan, Paul

Beschreibung

The book draws on unprecedented critical attention to the centrality of politics in Flann O'Brien's art. Focuses these inquiries onto key encounters between the body and the law, between death and the comic spirit in the author's canon.
