I'm loving this book, like every other @LizStrout book. Look forward to seeing her at Borris this summer. The writing is so lovely and her observations of nature - human and environmental, are brilliant. @Writingandideas

Thousands gathered yesterday at the Hill of Uisneach to say goodbye to our great friend Manchán - he was at every festival and everyone he encountered came away with the gift of having met him. RIP Manchán irishtimes.com/video/video/2…

This was Manchan & I on stage @Writingandideas at Borris in June. He was magnificent and never once mentioned the cancer which took him from us so early

1/2 As of yesterday, we are without one of our greatest souls. Manchan came to Borris the first year in 2012 and most years since, sharing profundity and levity, outpourings of wisdom, story, curiosity, concern and laughter.
