- Cyber Ireland is the first monograph to explore the intersections between cyber culture and Irish literature. Over six chapters, the book examines how Irish writers engage with new technologies and the parallel impact such technologies have on Irish writing. The book is the result of several years sustained investigation which included conducting interviews with government agencies, games designers, programmers, and digital artists. Detailed literary analysis of a range of texts in multiple genres, extensive archival research, and the acquisition of new expertise in relation to the economic factors which led to the Celtic Tiger phenomenon and subsequent financial collapse.
