Irish Writers Against War presents an impressive range of literary voices from Ireland united by their opposition to the proposed war in Iraq.

The Writers Against War movement has gathered huge support and momentum around the world, inspiring the editors Kostick and Moore to put together this collection of prose and poetry from Irish writers.

With over thirty contributors and many new pieces of work, this anthology is a unique collection of Irish political writings.

With an introduction by Brian Friel, the anthology also includes contributions from John F. Deane, Roddy Doyle, Terry Eagleton, Seamus Heaney, Brendan Kenneally, Medbh McGuckian, Paula Meehan, Siobhán Parkinson and Enda Wyley.
