OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Rob Doyle is a writer from Dublin. His first novel, Here Are the Young Men, published in 2014 by Bloomsbury and the Lilliput Press, was selected as one of Hot Press magazine’s 20 Greatest Irish novels 1916-2016, and has just been adapted for the screen. His second book, a collection of short stories entitled This Is the Ritual, was published in 2016 to widespread acclaim. Rob is the editor of the anthology The Other Irish Tradition (Dalkey Archive Press), and In This Skull Hotel Where I Never Sleep (Broken Dimanche Press). His new novel Threshold has just been published by Bloomsbury to glowing reviews. The New York Times recently dubbed him a professional "loafer, mope, successful Lothario and pretentious little troll." Rob teaches on the MFA in Creative Writing at the University of Limerick, and lives the rest of the year in Berlin.
