  • 2017 Programme
    “An unforgettable literary festival!” Hugo Hamilton CULTUREFOX.IE Artistic Director – Paul Perry Every March something special happens in Ennis. Readers come together to celebrate their love of books. Not all, but many are members of book clubs. We are after all the only book club festival in the country. Audiences in 2017 will be guaranteed their festival favourites – the perennial 10 Books You Should Read, as well as a stellar line up for our Sunday Symposium on Sports & Politics. 2017 is also a year in which we evolve in new directions: we host our first Children’s Book Club, welcome the Laureate for Irish Fiction, The Irish Times and the Rick O’Shea Book Clubs, and we’re delighted to be collaborating with Clare County Library on Teen Week. Throw into the mix Paul Durcan, Rose Tremain, Little John Nee and the arrival of thousands of book club members, and you’re in for something singular in Irish literary culture. It’s been a pleasure and privilege working with the Festival Team in bringing this programme to you: they are an extraordinary NEVER committee of volunteers, for what is an extraordinary festival. Chairperson’s Welcome – Emer O’Connell MISS Fáilte is fiche go hInis! It’s hard to believe that a year has passed since our hugely successful 10th anniversary celebration last March. And, we continue to go from strength to strength! 2017 comes with a host of new partnerships, which we look forward to developing further. Critically, those partnerships are rooted in the incredible support network we have built up over many years – with the Arts Council, Fáilte Ireland, our loyal corporate OUT supporters and our army of volunteers.

  • Full Text of 'Joyce House' Letter and Signatories
    Full text of ‘Joyce house’ letter and signatories As writers, artists, and scholars of Irish literature and culture, we call upon Josepha Madigan, the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, and Owen Keegan, Dublin City Manager, to intervene to save, for the nation and the world, the house at 15 Usher's Island, known to all as Joyce's house of "The Dead", and prevent any deterioration of its fabric. In the decades since Joyce's death, too many of the places that are rendered immortal in his writing have been lost to the city. Let us not repeat this mistake today. 15 Usher's Island is not just another house connected with Joyce. Built in 1775, its upper floors were rented by Joyce's great-aunts in the 1890s and the writer himself often visited them there. Most importantly, it is the setting of "The Dead", widely considered Joyce's and indeed the world's greatest short story. The atmosphere in the house and the way the rooms are configured are mostly untouched since Joyce's time. Turning it into a 56-room hostel would destroy the uniquely valuable interior which still maintains the character of the house so splendidly described in the story. Usher's Island has the potential to become a worthwhile site of literary pilgrimage, a way to inform and inspire new generations of Joyce readers. As we approach the centenary of Ulysses in 2022, we believe that saving this unique piece of our national heritage is within the power of the Government and the national institutions and that it should be an urgent priority.

Finally, in 2015 Barry’s Beatlebone won the Goldsmith’s Prize, which is awarded for work that breaks the mould of fictional conventions. Born in Limerick, Kevin has lived in many places, including Cork, Santa Barbara, Barcelona, and Liverpool. Recent years have, however, seen him settle in Sligo, where he has purchased and renovated a former police station. He is driven by enormous creative energy though he disarmingly refers to himself as a “raving egomaniac.” Barry’s most recent novel Beatlebone imagines John Lennon’s journey to an island he owns in Ireland, his battles with creative block, primal scream therapy, and his new album, the eponymous Beatlebone. “My initial spark of inspiration is always place.

I n truth, there have been hundreds of efforts to define this most tantalising and elusive of fictional forms, most of them as unhelpful as Flannery O'Connor's: "A story is a way to say something that can't be said any other way. Humor, tragedy, emotion, and other sentiments run through the various stories here. Granta's Best of Young issues, released Oct 29, Shane rated it it was amazing. Enright's choice is a shrewd one, succeeding in typifying each writer whilst expressing their uniqueness. T his excellent miscellany of modern short fiction from Ireland begins and ends with a road accident. Deft and often devastating, these short stories dodge the rolling mythologies of Irish life to produce truths that are delightful and real.

But though I am not a romantic, I am quite passionate about the whole business of being an Irish writer. From Nobel laureates to debut novelists, international translations to investigative journalism, each themed issue of Granta turns the attention of the world's best writers on to one aspect of the way we live now. They are. This is a slow read. I loved this collection of contemporary Irish short stories.

  • Summer-Fall 2017 Catalog(Fin)
    FRONTLIST Solar Bones 2–3 Sip 4–5 Savage Theories 6 Never Look an American in the Eye 6 War Porn 7 The Darkest Child 8–9 WINNER OF THE GOLDSMITHS PRIZE | AN IRISH TIMES BOOK CLUB CHOICE WINNER OF THE BGE IRISH BOOK AWARDS NOVEL OF THE YEAR A vital, tender, death-haunted work by one of Ireland’s most important contemporary writers, Solar Bones is a celebration of the unexpected beauty of life and of language, and our inescapable nearness to our last end. It is All Souls Day, and the spirit of Marcus Conway sits at his kitchen table and remembers. In fl owing, relentless prose, Conway recalls his life in rural Ireland: as a boy and man, father, husband, citizen. His ruminations move from childhood memories of his father’s deft- ness with machines to his own work as a civil engineer, from transformations in the local economy to the tidal wave of global fi nancial collapse. Conway’s thoughts go still further, outward to the vast systems of time and history that hold us all. He stares down through the “vortex of his being,” surveying all the linked circumstances that combined to bring him into this single moment, and he makes us feel, if only for an instant, all the terror and gratitude that existence inspires. Solar Bones is a masterwork that builds its own style and language one broken line at a time; the result is a visionary accounting of the now. MIKE MCCORMACK is an award-winning novelist and short story writer from County Mayo in Ireland.
