Special Culture Night 2020 Event: Celebrating the Irish Short Story

Cúirt International Festival of Literature, in partnership with Kenny’s Bookshop, present a special online event for Culture Night 2020.

Irish writing knows little of boundaries, spanning from sublime realism to brilliant genre fiction to gound-breaking experimentation, and nowhere is this more clear than in the short story. The Art of the Glimpse , soon to be released by Head of Zeus Publishing, is a anthology brings together a radical revision of the canon of the Irish short story.

For Culture Night 2020, join a stellar line up of Emma Donoghue, Oein DeBharduin, Donal Ryan, Chiamaka Enyi-Amadi and Sinéad Gleeson for an evening of stories and a discussion about the rich tradition of storytelling in Irish writing.
