Description

Irish Writers and The New Yorker in the Mid-Twentieth Century reveals the contractual arrangements and editorial relationships between Irish writers and the prestigious American magazine during a formative period in literary history. Drawing on archival research in the New Yorker records, this Routledge Focus volume uncovers details of the magazine's first-reading agreements, its distinctive 'fat' payments, and the dynamics between Irish authors and their editors. The book examines celebrated writers including Elizabeth Bowen, Edna O'Brien, Benedict Kiely, and John McGahern, alongside lesser-known Irish and Irish-American literary figures. Fresh contextual readings of their stories published in the magazine illuminate how these writers navigated transatlantic publishing networks and shaped modernist literature through their contributions to The New Yorker during this pivotal mid-century era.
