“Impermanence” is a new publication of 12 essays by writers from or living in Northern Ireland.

Written against the backdrop of Brexit, the Covid pandemic, the burning of Notre Dame, and the centenary of the partition of Ireland, the writing included here on the theme of impermanence both raises and answers a wide variety of questions and will be engaging reading for anyone with an interest in the state of Irish writing today.
