Thanks to Professor Margaret Kelleher of @ucddublin for referencing my book ‘Lucia Joyce: Full Capacity’ in her fab new @UCDPress ‘Mary & Pádraic Colum: Lives and the Dream’ 🙏 ✍️ #Chuffed
Looking forward to speaking about #LuciaJoyce at New Ross Library as part of #EugeneONeill Festival on October 16th 🎭 eugeneoneillfestival.com/sch…
What a beautiful word, with indigenous origins. Viva #LakeOntario
The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
Viva Lake #Ontario #LakeOntario
Ontario!!! What a beautiful word, with indigenous origins, meaning "Beautiful Waters", or "Sparkling Waters" Here is my new favourite song" @Neilyoung @NeilYoungNYA with Crazy Horse: Born In #Ontario (Official Video) youtu.be/1woTG_DaTuw?si=GFqs… via @YouTube

Really enjoyed ‘The Kerryman’ by Eva O’Connor the cool @glassmaskdublin just now! 🎭
Loved this hilarious, scary, & moving play with wonderful performances by Bairbre ni Caoimh, Michael James Ford & Mark O’Regan 🎭 treat yourself in the middle of the day on Grafton street 🎭
Still mulling over François Ozon’s stylish existential b/w 🎥 ‘The Stranger’ which we enjoyed @IFI_Dub last night. Thought-provoking 🧐 Good to be reminded of Camus’s classic treatise.
