About this book

“Milkman,” authored by Anna Burns is one of the most interesting books that explores themes allying with the Northern Ireland’ civil conflict. Certainly it will be sufficient to note that the plot deals with the story of an 18-year-old heroine, known as “middle sister,” who is erotically obsessed with a married milkman or “Milkman.” The matters like stalking, the role of communities and their norms as well as family relationships, and politics of exclusion are discussed in the book.

However, it has been also applauded for the Newness and Oldness atmosphere and, not to mention, the humor, throughout its difficult endeavor of dissecting Northern Irish sociopolitics. Milkman has also won several awards among them being the 2018 Booker Prize winner, becoming the first Northern Irish author to win the award. It has also received the 2018 National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction and the 2020 International Dublin Literary Award. For the moment, there are over 540 000 copies of the novel sold.
