Embodying Irish Abortion Reform: Bodies, Emotions, and Feminist Activism 

My book 'Embodying Irish Abortion Reform', was published with Bristol University Press in September (2024). It explores the embodied and emotional experience of living under Ireland's anti-abortion regime and the important role that feelings and gendered bodies played in repealing Ireland's 8th amendment.

In April 2025, the book was shortlisted for the BSA Philip Abrams Memorial Prize and was first-runner up in the competition.

The judges said the book was “wonderfully written”. They added "The reader gets a real sense of these women’s lives and the changing socio-political context over time, and is also treated to a fascinating and multidimensional sociological argument about the embodied and affective nature of reproductive inequality and social movement activism.”
