    Abstract

    This text interprets a wide range of Irish novels of the 1990s, focusing on the regulated sexual and constructed gendered body. It looks at how identities do, or don't, conform to familiar notions of sexuality, gender and culture and goes on to say that Irish identity is a matter of economics.
