Library. By Alvy Carragher. This hits me where a poem should:)

Great news for @bullaunpress.bsky.social, the first Irish publisher to have a book longlisted for the International Booker, and for Irish publishing! There's a Monster Behind the Door by Gaëlle Bélem is highly recommended

Tuar beag dóchais: seo liosta na leabhar is fearr díol ag Futa Fata & Barzaz ó thús 2025. Mar a bheifí ag súil, is iad na leabhair do ghasúir atá chun cinn. Ach féach go bhfuil TÍR BHEAG, aistriúchán @antainmac.bsky.social ar PETIT PAYS Gaël Faye ina measc. Tá tóir ar an úrscéal aistrithe. 🥳🥳🥳

Pátrún cosúil le toghchán uachtaránachta SAM le feiceáil sa nGearmáin, má thuigim i gceart é - fir óga go leor ag tacú leis an eite i bhfad ar dheis.

Ag súil go mór leis seo! @antainmac.bsky.social @barzazie.bsky.social

Well, and also, one era's "entertainment" very often becomes part of another era's "literary canon," so trying to aim for the canon is quixotic (see what I did there) at best. You know, just write a real good book and let the "canon" take care of itself.

Iontach sásta Éanna beag s’agamsa a bheith ar liosta fada Ghradaim KPMG Leabhair Pháistí Éireann. Tá sé i gcuideachta uasal ansin.

Déanaim mo chuimhne a chuardach ach ní fios dom cá huair a rinne muid an cinneadh nach raibh muid sásta an beagán a bhí againn a roinnt, nach raibh muinín againn as daoine níos mó agus gur bhaol dúinn iad, . . . Tír Bheag, @GaëlFaye, @antainmac.bsky.social

I'm speaking at two events - one on Saturday & one on Sunday. Looking forward it it. clareherald.com/living/liter...

Chríochnaigh mé 'Tír Bheag'! Thaitin an leabhar go mór liom, go háirithe toisc go bhfuil sé suite taobh amuigh d’Éirinn, rud atá neamhchoitianta do leabhar Gaeilge. Bhí an Ghaeilge soiléir agus níor chuir an t-aistriúchán isteach air. An-jab déanta ag @antainmac.bsky.social & @barzazie.bsky.social

I once rang Hotel Doolin to ask them if I could use their loos for a group of just arrived Syrian families who were on a day trip across Clare and when we arrived they had muffins & hot chocolates ready for all the children and teas and coffees and scones for the adults ready in their barn.
