Pathologists - FictionClass number: 823.92 Abstract: Quirke s pathology department, set deep beneath the city, is his own gloomy realm: always quiet, always night, and always under his control. Until late one evening after a party he stumbles across a body that should not be there -- and his brother-in-law falsifying the corpse s cause of death. This is the first time Quirke has encountered Christine Falls, but the investigation he decides to lead into the way she lived and died uncovers a dark secret at the heart of Dublin's high Catholic network; one with the power to shake his own family and everything he holds dear.

When newspaper magnate Richard Jewell is found dead at his country estate, clutching a shotgun in his lifeless hands, few see his demise as cause for sorrow.

But as Quirke and his assistant Sinclair get to know Jewell's beautiful, enigmatic wife Francoise d'Aubigny, and his fragile sister Dannie, as well as those who work for the family, it gradually becomes clear that all is not as it seems ...Against the backdrop of 1950's Dublin, Benjamin Black conjures another atmospheric, beguiling mystery.

Ireland - FictionClass number: 823.08 Abstract: Edited by M.R. James In 1888 Henry James wrote 'There was the customary novel by Mr Le Fanu for the bedside; the ideal reading in a country house for the hours after midnight'. Madam Crowl's Ghost & Other Stories are tales selected from Le Fanu's stories which mostly appeared in The Dublin University Magazine and other periodicals, and their haunting, sinister qualities still have an enormous appeal for the modern reader. The great M.R. James, who collected and introduces the stories in this book, considered that Le Fanu 'stands absolutely in the first rank as a writer of ghost stories.'

Pathologists - FictionClass number: 823.92 Abstract: The second Quirke novel from Man Booker prize-winning John Banville, writing as Benjamin Black Time has moved on for Quirke, the world-weary Dublin pathologist first encountered in CHRISTINE FALLS. It is the middle of the 1950s, that low, dishonourable decade; a woman he loved has died, a man whom he once admired is dying, while the daughter he for so long denied is still finding it hard to accept him as her father. When Billy Hunt, an acquaintance from college days, approaches him about his wife's apparent suicide, Quirke recognises trouble but, as always, trouble is something he cannot resist. Slowly he is drawn into a twilight world of drug addiction, sexual obsession, blackmail and murder, a world in which even the redoubtable Inspector Hackett can offer him few directions.

Short storiesClass number: 891.6 Abstract: Говорителите и писателите на ирски сега се само една од многубројните малцински групи во рамките на еден поголем национален наратив. Официјално поддржани од страна на државата, но практично маргинализирани и третирани и како нужно зло. Освен тоа, во рамките на Движењето за обнова на ирскиот јазик, авторите повеќе се трудат да ја претстават неговата субверзивна, радикална страна, а не неговата структура. Дел од нив, меѓу кои и Титли, отворено го искажуваат своето незадоволство од дволичноста на официјална Ирска со помош на јазична виртуозност која се граничи со карневализација : доказ, ако ни треба доказ, дека јазичните игри со зборови не се резервирани само за ирските автори кои пишуваат на англиски туку се дел од келтската традиција која отсекогаш била полна со богати фрази и алитерации.
