Books by Claire Keegan

Claire Keegan is an Irish writer whose short fiction is widely regarded as some of the finest in contemporary literature. Her earlier collection Antarctica and the novella Foster — about a child sent to live with relatives in rural Ireland — established her as a master of compression and implication. Small Things Like These, published in 2021, became an international bestseller and won the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction. It was adapted as a 2022 film starring Cillian Murphy. Keegan lives in County Wicklow, Ireland.
