Er gehört zu den Grossen der Schweizer Mundartliteratur: Der Solothurner Mundartautor Ernst Burren. Seit den späten 60er-Jahren schreibt er Mundartgedichte und -geschichten und gehört zusammen mit Ernst Eggimann und Kurt Marti zu den Pionieren der «Modern Mundart» in der Schweiz. Ernst Burren wächst auf einem Bauernhof im solothurnischen Oberdorf auf, zu dem auch ein Wirtshaus gehört. Das Wirtshaus ist prägend für den künftigen Mundartautor, denn in der Schankstube schnappt Ernst Burren schon als Junge Textfetzen und Anekdoten auf, die sich in seinem Kopf zu ganzen Geschichten verdichten. Mit der Zeit beginnt er, diese Geschichten aufzuschreiben. Monologe entstehen und auch Gedichte, die – inspiriert von den lautmalerischen Texten eines Ernst Eggimann oder Kurt Marti - zu einem wesentlichen Beitrag zur «Modern Mundart» werden. Unterdessen gibt es über dreissig Bücher mit Ernst Burrens Gedichten und Geschichten. Und es gibt auch Dutzende von Hörspielen, die aus seinen Texten entstanden sind. Das neueste, «Gmeinschaftsantenne», erscheint wie dieses Porträt auch in diesem November zu Ernst Burrens 80. Geburtstag.

Take a listen as Rebecca and I chat about the plot, characters, Irish/Celtic spiritualism, Native American culture and spiritualism, grief/grieving, and more! The first fifteen minutes are spoiler free!A little about The Stones of Burren Bay: In a tragic car accident, 15-year-old Norie loses her deadbeat father while her distant mother is injured. Her prized possession, an antique artist's box that traveled from Ireland with her great-great-grandmother, is destroyed along with her deep connection to her art. As Norie grapples with her self-identity, obscured by grief and anger, she and her physically and emotionally fragile mother are forced to relocate. With no other relatives to rely on, they call on the kindness of her mother's oldest friend Dahlia and her daughter Wil, who run the Jolly Pot Tearoom and Burren Bay Lighthouse Museum on Manitoulin Island. Dahlia introduces Norie to ancient Irish Celtic spiritualism and opens the thin veil between the past and present where Norie encounters the echo of a century's old spirit, Oonagh. Through Oonagh's own story Norie comes to terms with her father's betrayal and death and rediscovers her passion for art. As her mother's emotional wounds reach a crisis, Norie realizes they must face their guilt and grief together in order to heal and become reunited as mother and daughter.Send us a textHave a question about today's book or author?
