Sinossi

Digital Identity Risks explores the complex interplay between online platforms and the LGBTQ community, highlighting both the empowering and perilous aspects of digital identity. The book delves into how the internet serves as a crucial space for LGBTQ individuals to connect and organize, yet simultaneously exposes them to increased risks of harassment and discrimination. 

 
One key insight is the double-edged sword of online visibility, where greater representation coexists with heightened vulnerability. The book examines how LGBTQ individuals construct and manage their online personas, analyzing the dynamics of visibility and representation across various platforms. It dedicates a significant portion to the analysis of online harassment, cyberbullying, and hate speech targeting LGBTQ individuals. 

 
Drawing upon qualitative and quantitative research, including surveys and case studies, the book connects to fields such as sociology, political science, and communication studies to offer a nuanced understanding. Ultimately, Digital Identity Risks provides strategies for enhancing digital safety and privacy. 

 
The book addresses ongoing debates about the role of online platforms in promoting or hindering LGBTQ equality, making it valuable for students, researchers, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the impact of digital technology on LGBTQ communities.

The Lonely Voice is the definitive work of Irish non-fiction on the art of writing short fiction, and has long been held up as one of the greatest works in global literature on the short form. We are delighted to bring The Lonely Voice back into print with a brand new introduction by Kevin Barry, internationally recognised as one of Ireland's greatests short story writers, whose work - like O'Connor's before him - appears frequently in the New Yorker. Barry engages and parrys with O'Connor's writing, bringing about a meeting of great Irish short story writers from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and bringing this foundational piece of Irish writing to a new generation.   
The ideal companion to works such as George Saunders A Swim in a Pond in the Rain or John Yorke's Into the Woods: How Stories Work and Why we Tell Them.
