These anthologies collect work from multiple authors, with John Boyne among the contributors. The Grist Anthology of New Writing (2009) and From the Republic of Conscience (2010) showcase Irish literary talent, while Dubliners 100 (2014) was a centenary tribute to James Joyce’s classic short story collection. Beyond the Stars (2014) is a children’s anthology featuring stories from several well-known Irish authors.
Boyne’s presence in these collections places him alongside other notable Irish writers. His contributions are a small but consistent part of his output during the 2009 to 2014 period, when he was also publishing novels regularly. For readers who want a sample of his shorter work beyond his own collection Beneath the Earth, these anthologies are worth seeking out.
