Northern Irish Troubles and about contemporary Ireland. In these
works, she weighs up the aftermath of violence and the impact of the
shift to a more open but materialist society in the country overall.
Memory, trauma, and the abiding but elusive links between the past
and the present are central concerns of her fiction. This pioneering set
of essays by leading experts in Irish Studies explores the many
dimensions of her novels from a wide variety of perspectives.
Madden's skill at interweaving novels of ideas with artist novels that
draw out the complex inner predicaments of her characters is
highlighted. States of dislocation are concentrated on in her texts, but
also the quest for a home in the world and a lasting set of values that
allows for personal integrity and authenticity. These multifaceted
explorations bear out the compelling and enduring aspects of
Madden's highly regarded novels.

Set in an unknown location in Northern Ireland, at a time when the Troubles were at its peak, the narrative defiantly targets at what appears to be sexual harassment, to further disclose layers of more subtle meanings related to sociopolitical (self-)control and surveillance, in an atmosphere of pathological silence. Informed by Michel Foucault's theories, developed in his studies Discipline and Punish and The History of Sexuality, this article explores Burns' novel in light of Foucault's model of biopower, defined as a "technology of power centered on life," within which the panopticon will be revisited. I will contend that silence, consequently, surfaces as both the voluntary alternative and the inevitable consequence of the imposition of regulatory practices on docile bodies, on a disempowered microstructure of inmates that facilitates the success of such technology of power.

Internationally acclaimed, her prose has been praised for its frank and bitter portrayal of a rural world, whose outdated values, no matter how anchored in the past they might be, still prevail in a modern milieu. Keegan's unsympathetic views on society, mainly on the Catholic Church and the family, are the main targets of her harsh criticism. Issues like gender and sexuality, two social constructs with which to validate an uneven distribution of power, constitute the pillars of most of her plots. Bearing these aspects in mind, my proposal focuses on the analysis of Keegan's first collection of short stories, Antarctica (1999), in light of gender relations and female agency, in an attempt to find patterns ofoften thwartedfemale emancipation in the context of the rapid changes of a society that is still adjusting to a globalised world. This article will also engage in the discussion of her second collection, Walk the Blue Fields (2007), and her long short story Foster (2010).

Informed by ecocritical theory, the discussion will tackle issues connected to the effects of urban and semi-urban habitats on the shaping of the individual mind, in a way that will challenge the traditional divide between city and countryside. It will consequently contend that the protagonist's perception and relation to the places she inhabits can be explained in terms of the notions of topophilia and ecophobia, with the sole purpose of subverting them. The analysis will finally suggest that the comforting sound of whirls, the lulling effect of the current of the river, is the nurturing element that stands between the laws of nature and those of society, blending life with death and allowing the possibility for rebirth. Resumen: A partir de la idea de que el acercamiento crítico a la literatura urbana ha tendido a ignorar el papel que juegan los ríos, este estudio trata de analizar el poder emocional que adopta el río Liffey en la primera novela de Nuala NíChounchúir, You (2010). Siguiendo postulados de ecocrítica, el presente análisis ahonda en temas relacionados con el efecto que tienen los hábitats urbanos y semiurbanos en la formación del pensamiento individual, cuestionando la división tradicional entre el campo y la ciudad. De esta forma, defiende que la percepción de la protagonista y la relación que mantiene con los lugares que habita pueden explicarse a partir de los conceptos de topofilia y ecofobia, con el fin de subvertirlos. Finalmente el análisis sugiere que el sonido arrullador de la cascada de agua y el efecto de la corriente del río son los elementos que, al disolver las leyes naturales y las sociales, nutren la fusión entre la vida y la muerte posibilitando así el renacer.
