Through rigorous scholarly contributions, this volume delves in to Rooney’s novels and stories, uncovering how digital culture, religious legacies, and neoliberal values shape characters’ mental health, sense of belonging, and interdependence. Chapters explore themes such as cultural programming, care ethics, gender norms, intersectional identities, and the Künstlerroman tradition. By situating Rooney’s works against Ireland’s post-Celtic Tiger landscape, the book highlights new perspectives on vulnerability, trauma, and resilience, forging a vital dialogue about contemporary health and care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElsa Adán Hernández\u003c\/strong\u003e is Lecturer in the Department of English and German Studies at the University of Zaragoza, Spain.
