Many readers of Éilís Ní Dhuibhne's short stories and novels in English may not have read her creative work in the Irish language. In this short essay I aim to make more readers aware of her contribution to literature in Irish and of where her work is situated within the overall range of modern literature in Irish. 'Éilís na Gaeilge' is a somewhat different writer than her English language doppelganger. Her Irish language novels, for example, are predominantly works of popular fiction such as murder mysteries. Much of her work in Irish is aimed at – or at least accessible to – a young adult readership and deals directly and indirectly with social issues that affect their lives. She is an exceptional writer who had already developed a national and international reputation writing in English before devoting much of her writing life to work in Irish. This essay aims to cast some light on the range and quality of Éilís Ní Dhuibhne's creative work in Irish and to encourage those who can to engage with that work as well as with her more widely known stories in English.
