In store now! It Rose Up: A Selection of Lost Irish Fantasy Stories edited by Jack Fennell

I cannot remember my father or my mother; oh, wretched that I am!

Had I either? My memory goes back three months – no further.

Every day, I live those three months over and over again.

It Rose Up: A Selection of Lost Irish Fantasy Stories edited by Jack Fennell

Paperback £12

A mystical battle between foreign gods and local saints is unleashed as idols are mistaken for garden ornaments; an ambiguous wizard spies on his neighbours from an invisible tower; a cursed duelling pistol influences its owners to commit suicide.

Edited and introduced by Jack Fennell, this collection of lesser-known works of classic Irish fantasy – with strange combinations of occultism, electricity, magic and playfully Biblical archetypes – illuminate a side of Irish literary history that is often overlooked.

We are open:

We are back open six days a week, with the whole store open for browsing. We will still of course be taking customer orders and you will still be able to buy food and cleaning products online through our online store. 

We are able to be open 6 days a week again because of your consideration and care whilst in the shop. Though things are opening up, covid cases are still high and a lot of our staff have only received one jab. So we are asking customers to continue to leave that extra space, sanitise their hands and pull on their mask. We really appreciate it.
