Gráinne (novel)

Gráinne is a novel by British writee Keith Roberts, published in 1987.

Plot summary Gráinne is a novel in which Alastair Bevan sees his one-time lover Gráinne achieve fame on television, establish a cult, and then die to achieve immortality as a myth.

Reception Dave Langford reviewed Gráinne for White Dwarf #90, and stated that "The final, haunting images effectively combined fairy mounds and World War III, but didn't overcome my frustration: Gráinne's barely-glimpsed story fails to conquer the dead weight of Bevan's autobiographical longueurs."
