SHORTLISTED FOR THE ORANGE PRIZE

Novelist Deirdre Madden was recently awarded a Windham Campbell Prize, worth $175,000 to support her work and allow her to focus on creative practice without financial concerns.

One by One in the Darkness follows a week in the lives of three sisters shortly before the start of the IRA ceasefire in 1994, undercut with the story of their childhood in Northern Ireland of the 1960s and 1970s. The history of both a family and a society, One by One in the Darkness confirms Deirdre Madden’s reputation as one of Irish fiction’s most outstanding talents.
