Facultad de Filosofía y Letras In the recent the Irish literary scene there are two authors known for their polemic topics and depiction of Ireland: Edna O’Brien and Molly Keane. Molly Keane depicts in her stories the life of the Anglo-Irish gentry while Edna O’Brien focuses on rural settings and stories of female experiences.
