Yeats Is Dead!: A Mystery by 15 Irish Writers - Rilegato

"Despite the playful inaccuracy of its title - Yeats will never die - this is
a splendid venture, full of wit and high spirits. A great romp of a read."

--John Banville

Joseph O’Connor’s debut novel, Cowboys and Indians, was short-listed for the Whitbread Prize. His work has been widely translated and has won many prizes. He lives in Ireland.

Yeats Is Dead! is a novel written by fifteen Irish authors as a fund-raiser for Amnesty International, a worldwide grassroots movement that promotes and defends human rights. Amnesty International works independently of all government and political ideologies to: secure the release of prisoners of conscience—people detained solely because of their beliefs, identity or ethnic origin, who have neither used nor advocated violence; ensure fair and prompt trials for all political prisoners; and end all use of torture, political killings, “disappearances” and the death penalty.
