The Country Girls trilogy was a real ground breaker in the early 60s.

She married Ernest Gebler who seems to have been a right #$&@. They separated in 1964. Apparently he came later to believe HE had written The Country Girls.

RIP Edna.

My own well thumbed copy. Edna O’Brien was a literary giant in a long line of distinguished Irish writers. She wrote the simple truth of the everyday lives of her characters. When this truth was brought into light, the shock and reaction were extraordinary. RIP Edna O’Brien.
