Acknowledgements
This has been a great project to work on. Thanks for all the wonderful support I received from the Palgrave team, including Ellie Freedman, Emily Wood and Lina Aboujieb. Thanks to colleagues in the School of English, Drama and Film, University College Dublin and the College of Arts and Humanities’ granting of Research Leave that allowed me the time to finish this project. As this is another attempt to engage with the work of Martin McDonagh, I have to thank all those who have inputted on my previous attempts, contributors and my co-editor, Lilian Chambers on The Theatre of Martin McDonagh: A World of Savage Stories and assistance and advice I received from so many in preparation of my earlier monograph From Leenane to LA: The Theatre and Films of Martin McDonagh. Thanks to the numerous conference and research seminar organisers that allowed me to test ideas, often for the first time in public. My Third-Year module on McDonagh’s work has always been a particular joy to teach; so thanks to all those students over the years. To each and every M.A. and Ph.D. student I have worked with, I would like to thank, particularly
