William Kennedy gestaltet Erzählungen, die sich auf die komplexen Dynamiken innerhalb seiner fiktiven irisch-amerikanischen Phelan-Familie konzentrieren. Seine Werke verweben häufig historische Begebenheiten aus Albanys Vergangenheit mit übernatürlichen Elementen und schaffen so ein unverwechselbares literarisches Gewebe. Kennedys Schreiben zeichnet sich durch seine einzigartige Stimme und eine tiefgründige Auseinandersetzung mit der menschlichen Verfassung aus.
