Description

Welcome to the Dublin City Libraries and Archives podcast. Our new season looks back at Dublin: One City, One Book 2018, where we celebrated The Long Gaze Back, and the female voice in Irish literature. This wonderful anthology of 30 short stories is edited by Sinead Gleeson. While the events planned for this year’s Dublin: One City, One Book are postponed, we encourage you to enjoy this year's choice Tatty by Christine Dwyer Hickey, available electronically on Libraries Ireland’s BorrowBox app, and in libraries and bookshops when they reopen, and to listen back on this podcast.

In this episode, "Selected Shorts", we hear actors Rose Henderson, Susie Lamb, Katie O'Kelly and Geraldine Plunkett perform readings from The Long Gaze Back – stories by Éilís Ní Dhuibhne, Lia Mills, Christine Dwyer Hickey and Anne Devlin – followed by a discussion with the authors, chaired by Catherine Dunne.

Recorded at the New Theatre on Saturday 7 April 2018.
