For those of you who haven’t read it yet, here’s as good an excuse as any. Lisa “Sweary Lady” McInerney’s wonderful debut, The Glorious Heresies, is the Irish Times Book of the Month for March.

Over the next few weeks, we will be exploring the novel with Lisa, who will contribute a number of articles shedding light on different aspects of her work. We will also publish an extract, interviews, reviews and appreciations, culminating in a podcast interview with the author to be recorded at the Irish Writers Centre in Dublin and then published here.
