(Dr. Anna Pilz, Liverpool Postgraduate Journal of Irish Studies, Vol. 1, February, 2016) "Kirkpatrick and Farago's volume - which deserves special praise for its combination of established and emerging scholars, as well as their international range - marks an important addition to the field, and will inspire a broad scope of responses and further developments." (Timothy C. Baker, Irish Studies Review, 2015) "This is a fascinating and wide-ranging collection of essays that contributes strongly to the field of literary animal studies. It is one of those rare collections that combines historical with theoretical acumen. It is a particular joy to see Irish poetry treated with such reverence and sophistication in essay after essay."
