Information for Publishers

The Irish Book Review reviews high quality, upmarket books of Irish interest, i.e. written by Irish authors, or where the subject has some specific interest to an Irish audience. We are particularly interested in literature and fiction, poetry, drama, visual arts and film, music, criticism, biography, autobiography and memoir, current events, history, politics, Irish culture and society, religion and business. Generally speaking, we will not be reviewing mass-market fiction titles, guidebooks, cookbooks, self-help books, “true crime”, children's books etc.

Please send review copies of relevant titles to: The Irish Book Review, Ashbrook House, 10 Main Street, Raheny, Dublin 5, Ireland. Please enclose a press release or advance information sheet, which should include full publication details (ISBN, price in euros, publication date, page extent) and any other relevant information. Copies of reviews will be sent to publishers on publication.

Please note that the deadline for receipt of books for possible review in the next issue is August 27. Whenever possible, and definitely for a book due for publication shortly after this deadline, we would appreciate advance review copies or page proofs.

The Irish Book Review also has very competitive advertising rates, with a quarter page ad in full colour only costing €300.00.
