This book explores the remarkable collaboration of one of the most prominent and successful female literary partnerships at work in the late nineteenth century; Irish authors, Edith Somerville (1858-1949) and Violet Martin/Martin Ross (1862-1915). Based on extensive and original archival research, it reorients traditional thinking about Somerville and Ross's partnership and rethinks the collaboration beyond a purely domestic and personal affair.
