Out of IrelandOut of Ireland is a 1999 novel by Christopher Koch which tells the story of Irish 'gentleman-convict' Robert Devereux and his transportation to Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania). Koch observed that Out of Ireland was an exploration of his "interest in the idea that the past resonates off the future." The novel is considered uniquely Tasmanian because of the way it deals with convict ancestry and emphasizes the island's geographic isolation.

Plot
The novel starts with Devereux, an Irish revolutionary, aboard a convict prison hulk in Bermuda. It then follows his transportation to Van Diemen's Land, his release and subsequent adventures on the island.
