The Pornographer
By 'arguably the most important Irish writer since Samuel Beckett' (The Guardian), a character study of a young resident of Dublin who pens erotica for a living, making his money through fantasy while denying the realities of love and sex in his life. The Pornographer is the story of a writer down on his luck, not a Dubliner but a resident of Dublin penning far from erotic tales to make ends meet. These tales--revolving around the 'delicious, unending revel' of Colonel Grimshaw and the typist Mavis Carmichael--form a mordant counterpoint to his own, much more complicated existence. Thirty years old, befogged by alcohol, sensitive yet indifferent to all emotional weather, he meets the slightly older Josephine, a clever, cautiously optimistic magazine editor who soon confesses her love, and though the feeling isn't mutual (as he makes painfully clear) the affair goes on; Josephine becomes pregnant; and, this being Ireland in the seventies, the piper must be paid. Not cruel but callous,
