We asked critics for the best Irish novels published in the past 15 years. It’s a truism that the Irish cast a long and influential shadow over English-language literature. James Joyce appears near the top of most lists of influential writers, and more recently, Sally Rooney discourse clogs our feeds every time she publishes a new novel.

Gliff Author: Ali Smith ISBN-13: 9780241665572Publisher: Hamish HamiltonGuideline Price: £18.99Two-thirds of the way through Ali Smith’s new novel Gliff there is a list of definitions for the titular word, a very Smithian list that shows the author’s trademark curiosity in the breadth of language. The meanings range from a wink of sleep, a touch of illness, a nonsense word, a synonym for spliff, a postejaculatory sex act, an organisation in Vienna working to prevent drug abuse, among others.
