GUILT RULES ALL!

Some of you may have noticed my lack of posting for a wee while. It's hasn't been because I've disappeared off the planet, more a twist and turn of life, so please forgive me.

However, today I'm delighted to share this Irish Crime Fiction gem with you. Edited by Elizabeth Mannion and Brian Cliff 'GUILT RULES ALL 'explores and celebrates Irish Crime Fiction. I feel honoured to be one of the writers featured in this work which conveys the breadth of the genre.

Within a piece by Rosemary Erickson Johnson on the Kate Pearson series, she says, "Phillips's series offers insight into contemporary Irish society, with a particular reference to women's lives and feminist issues, and helps us to define the parameters of domestic noir in the face of sometimes-competing demands of series fiction." 

Well, that will do me!

Hope you are all surviving these rather testing times!

Academic Case Study - Louise Phillips: Serial Domestic Noir

They say write what you know, but when it comes to crime writing, how much can you know???

That being said, I'm absolutely delighted with many aspects of an academic study on my writing (on the Kate Pearson Series of novels) which is soon to be published....

More details to follow, but here are a couple of choice excerpts..

"Examination of Phillips' series demonstrates how her work offers insights into contemporary Irish society, with particular reference to women's lives and feminist issues, and helps to define the parameters of domestic noir...."

"Crime fiction such as the psychologically-oriented investigations of Louise Phillips' Dr. Kate Pearson series can show how the roots of contemporary crime lie in past abuse that was either papered over or accepted as normal at the time."
