The 32 McVeigh Paul
We read because we want to experience lives and emotions beyond our own, to learn, to see with others' eyes. Too often, working-class writers find that the hurdles they come up against are higher and harder to leap over than those faced by writers from more affluent backgrounds. The 32 is a collection of memoir and essays in celebration of the working class, from thirty-two established and emerging Irish voices including Kevin Barry, Dermot Bolger, Roddy Doyle, Lisa McInerney, Lyra McKee and many more.
Without these working-class voices, without the vital reflection of real lives, or role models for working-class readers and writers, literature will be poorer. The 32 sees writers who have made that leap reach back to give a helping hand to those coming up behind. We will all be poorer.
