Vladivostok is a collection of writings by the writer, journalist and theatre critic Maurice Kennedy, published in various Irish publications and anthologies over four decades. From witty essays and criticism to a number of short stories, the tome represents a selection of the work published by Kennedy. It includes the seminal, much-anthologised title story, 'Vladivostok', which was first published in the review Irish Writing, and then brought out in the British "Winter's Tales" series by Macmillan.

Maurice Kennedy was born in Youghal, Co Cork and throughout his career as an Irish civil servant, he was also a successful freelance writer, his short stories being particularly well known and widely translated. Throughout the 'fifties and 'sixties he was a regular contributor as literary and drama critic to The Irish Times, The Irish Press and to literary periodicals of the time. In the mid 'fifties he edited and presented a programme called Plays of the Week for RTE radio.

This is the second edition of the collection, and is published in tandem with an electronic book edition.
