About the Author
Aidan Higgins (1927-2015) was born in Celbridge, County Kildare. Langrishe, Go Down, his first novel, won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize and the Irish Academy of Letters Award, and was later filmed for television, with a screenplay by Harold Pinter. In 2001, he was conferred with an honorary doctorate of letters by the National University of Ireland, Cork.
Review
'Deserves to be more widely known, not only for its extraordinary mournful beauty, but also for its apocalyptic vision of a culture's squandering and rottenness, for its throughgoing dismantling of the Irish house of fiction, and as one of the great works of European anti-authority' TLS. 'Half a century since its publication, Langrishe, Go Down remains bold, expressive and daring ... It is a defining great Irish novel; in fact, it is a defining international modernist novel that resonates with dark and very human intent' Irish Times. 'Takes the breath out of you' Annie Proulx.
