25 years ago in August of 1998, four months after the Good Friday Agreement was signed the Real IRA detonated a car bomb in Omagh. In doing so they claimed the lives of 29 men, women and children, among them a mother heavily pregnant with twins and shattered the thin veil of peace.

Recorded April 5, 2023 Panelists: Dr Jane Suzanne Carroll (TCD), Dr David Kenny (TCD), Dr Martina Devlin, and Dr Nicholas Johnson (TCD). With the recent news that publishers Puffin and the Roald Dahl Story Company have decided to rewrite potentially sensitive or offensive elements of the popular children's books, our Behind the Headlines panel considers whether languages, images, and texts should be altered to suit the times, and what else is ‘subject to change'?  While some may argue that rewriting books amounts to a threat to literary expression—a throwback to ‘book banning' or even censorship—others will point to the fact that works of fiction are being adapted all the time, based on the norms of the moment. And children's books are not the only texts that are under revision; we expand our discussion to constitutional law and to the world of theatre as our panel considers how we can protect the integrity of a text throughout the ages.

The Raptures is Jan Carson's most autobiographical novel, dealing with a child raised in an evangelical Christian community in 1990s Northern Ireland – which mirrors her own background. In her book, a class of children from the same village fall prey to a mysterious and deadly epidemic. Only one pupil seems to be avoiding the effects of the disease: Hannah, a girl from a born-again Christian background. “There is a lot of me in this book and for that reason it was both very easy to write because I know this world very well, there wasn't a lot of research to do, but quite difficult to write – to go to the hard places,” Jan tells podcast host Martina Devlin. “It's very easy to pastiche this world. It's much more difficult to have a nuanced look at it.” She was sheltered from the Troubles, but in hindsight wishes she'd known more about what was happening around her. In her books, Jan gives readers a strong sense of the Ulster Protestant experience, especially for those from the ‘born again' community. “I grew up absolutely immersed in the King James Bible,” she says. “That is not a bad literary document to be immersed in as a writer. It's got everything from poetry and prophecy to magical realism and beautiful, beautiful language. I'm very glad for those things.” More here: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/437833/the-raptures-by-carson-jan/9780857525758

The November Art of Reading book club features Colm in conversation with writer Tom McCarthy about Elizabeth Bowen's novel The Last September. The Laureate says “This is another novel set during the Irish War of Independence. Just as Martina Devlin's book is about solitude and introspection, this centres on a house party, scenes filled with chatter and strange silences, things unmentioned and unmentionable. And in the background are the insurgents, the sense of impending doom.” Thomas McCarthy was born in Co. Waterford in 1954 and educated at the local Convent of Mercy and at University College Cork. He was a Fellow of the International Writing Programme at the University of Iowa in 1978/79. He worked for many years at Cork City Libraries, mainly working in the Lending Section of Cork Central Library before he withdrew to write fulltime in 2014. He has won many awards for his poetry, including The Patrick Kavanagh Award, the Alice Hunt Bartlett Prize, the O'Shaughnessy Prize and the American-Ireland Funds Annual Literary Award. His tenth collection of poems, Prophecy,was published by Carcanet Press in 2019. A former Editor of Poetry Ireland Review and The Cork Review,his latest book, Memory, Poetry and the Party: Journals 1974-2014, is published by The Gallery Press, Ireland. Elizabeth Bowen was born in Dublin in 1899. An only child of Anglo-Irish descent, she was educated in England and spent her summers at Bowen's Court in County Cork. She was a short-story writer, novelist and essayist. Her first book, a collection of stories entitled Encounters, was published in 1923 with the help of Rose Macaulay of the Bloomsbury Group. The Hotel (1927) was her first novel. Her most highly regarded and well-known novels, The Death of the Heart (1938) and The Heat of the Day (1948), were set in London between the World Wars and during the Blitz. Her novel The Last September (1929) recounts the history of Bowen's Court and is set during the events that preceded Irish independence. She was awarded the CBE in 1948 and received an honorary degree from Trinity College Dublin in 1948 and from Oxford University in 1956. The Royal Society of Literature made her a Companion of Literature in 1965. She died in 1973.

The October Art of Reading book club features Colm in conversation with writer Martina Devlin about her book Edith. The Laureate says “Edith is an engrossing and sensitive portrait of the writer Edith Somerville during the War of Independence when her writing partner Violet Ross is dead and her own career as a writer not flourishing. It is a portrait of a sensitive, solitary figure in a time of turmoil, of a woman striking out as an artist in a time when there were many barriers”. Martina Devlin has written 11 books, including the novels About Sisterland and The House Where It Happened, and the short story collection Truth & Dare. Her latest book Edith: A Novel – about the writer Edith Somerville – will be published by the Lilliput Press in May. Prizes include the Royal Society of Literature's V.S.

Famously, King Oedipus killed his father and married his mother. That's what everyone knows about the Greek myth. But Carlo Gébler sets out to humanise the story. He talks about his novel I Antigone set in the seventh century BC, and why Antigone is his narrator: because she had "skin in the game" as both daughter and sister to Oedipus. He says the story remains compelling thousands of years later because it is a family tragedy.

Michael Collins is the most famous casualty of the Irish Civil War but there is a lot of “what-if-ery”about him, says Ireland's best-known historian. “Some “vey fanciful” claims are about the kind of leader he would have become if he had survived, according to Diarmaid Ferriter. He says: “We have to be careful of investing too much in the idea of the lost leader because Collins shared many of the limitations and the prejudices, as well as the considerable abilities, of his generation.” Professor Ferriter notes that Michael Collins was “a serious celebrity” at the time of his death in 1922. He dismisses conspiracy theories about his shooting at Béal na Bláth in Co Cork as “far-fetched”. Between Two Hells: The Irish Civil War by Diarmaid Ferriter is published by Profile Books.

A new collection of essays which reflect on the perils and compulsions of authorship, the vagaries of success and failure - and what counts as either. Twenty-one contributors tell it like it really was. All of them came of age when equality legislation was being enacted in Ireland – often due to their activism. Look! It's A Woman Writer is edited by Éilís Ní Dhuibhne and published by Arlen House. More information here: http://arlenhouse.blogspot.com Produced and presented by Martina Devlin

At the age of 20, three months after meeting James Joyce, Nora Barnacle left everything she knew behind to share the adventure of a lifetime with him. She was a maid in a Dublin hotel when they met, and he was a clever and ambitious young man who wanted to be a writer. In 1904, they shipped out for mainland Europe, at times living a hand-to-mouth existence, at other times eating in the best restaurants. But through it all, Nora stuck by Joyce, who made her his muse and immortalised her as Molly Bloom in Ulysses. Nuala O’Connor, who brings Nora vividly to life in her novel of the same name, discusses the famous literary couple. Nora: A Love Story of Nora Barnacle and James Joyce by Nuala O’Connor is published by New Island: https://www.newisland.ie/fiction/nora Produced and presented by Martina Devlin

Poet Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin talks about a time when books were banned in Ireland. And how her mother, distinguished children's writer Eilís Dillon, had a cupboard of them which she handed out to the family. “It was, of course, nonsensical that they were banned," says Eiléan. “You had to go out and get them quickly when they were first published." Eiléan was recently named winner of China’s prestigious 1573 International Poetry Award. Produced and presented by Martina Devlin. Music by Daragh Dukes. Eiléan's Collected Poems spanning more than half a century available from the Gallery Press website here: https://www.gallerypress.com/authors/m-to-n/eilean-ni-chuilleanain/

“I don’t know if Ireland is the same any more,” says Booker Prize winner and former Laureate for Irish Fiction Anne Enright. Previously hidden things have become “knowable, newly sayable” in the last 30 years and this has contributed to an altered Ireland. “That process by which things become known has been one of the great engines of my own writing over the last three decades” and has been “creatively fruitful,” says Anne, whose latest novel is Actress. Among other themes, the book deals with Hollywood’s casting couch regime and chimes with the Me Too movement. City of Books is funded by the Arts Council and supported by Dublin UNESCO City of Literature and the Museum of Literature Ireland, MOLI. Produced and presented by Martina Devlin. Music by Daragh Dukes. For more on Actress: https://www.penguin.co.uk/authors/1009089/anne-enright.html

Louis de Bernières may be known worldwide as the author of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin - but at nineteen, teaching in Colombia, he was known for something else. Dancing like a chicken. He talks to City of Books about how "we raised a lot of dust, raised a lot of fun" during that life-changing period in South America. It taught him to read Gabriel Garcia Marquez, who influenced his work.

Writer Eoin McNamee blurs fact and fiction to produce art, whether exploring the activities of secret intelligence agencies or speculating on why Princess Diana died in a high speed car accident. His 17 novels are gritty and poetic – beautifully written noir – and have earned him a Booker nomination. But they sometimes attract criticism for being near the knuckle, although he sees that as their function, he tells podcast host Martina Devlin. He also writes episodes for Valhalla, the Vikings spinoff for Netflix. His most recent novel, The Vogue, is set in Northern Ireland where a corpse is dug up, and other secrets uncovered along with it. “Writing should be transgressive," he says. The Vogue is published by Faber.

Ireland's man in Washington, Ambassador Daniel Mulhall, talks us through the rhyme and reason of poetry - and how literature can act as a cultural bridge. He practises what he preaches by tweeting daily poems. Also in this episode, Professor Chris Morash of Trinity College Dublin discusses who's in the shakeup for a valued and valuable award: the Dublin International Literature Prize worth €100,000. Produced and presented by Martina Devlin. Music by Daragh Dukes

Lemn Sissay shoots from the hip and speaks from the heart in this interview about mother and baby homes, the Black Lives Matter campaign and his experience in the British care system.   “My name was changed, I was treated as property,” the poet and playwright Lemn tells City of Books presenter Martina Devlin. Lemn was born in a mother and baby home in England to an Ethiopian mother, fostered out and returned to care at the age of 12 - as he tells in his powerful memoir My Name Is Why. But poetry gave him a sense of belonging in a world he couldn't fathom. More info: www.lemnsissay.com

Richard Ford is listing his failures. He wanted to be a lawyer in the US Marines. That didn’t work out. He wanted to be "a lawyer, period”. That didn’t work out. He became a writer – that certainly counts as a success for the Pulitzer Prize winner. Even so, between novels and short story collections he sometimes thought he was through with fiction and imagined doing other jobs. But he kept going, he tells Martina Devlin in the City of Books podcast for Dublin UNESCO City of Literature. And that’s been the case for half a century. Although when he’s between books, he claims to “flounce” around finding reasons not to work. Sorry For Your Trouble is his latest book, a short story collection published by Bloomsbury. https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/sorry-for-your-trouble-9781526620026/ Produced+presented by Martina Devlin with music by Daragh Dukes

Doyenne of domestic noir Liz Nugent’s work has an army of fans including Graham Norton, who describes her latest hit Our Little Cruelties as part rollercoaster, part maze. Here, Liz talks about coping with pain stemming from a childhood brain haemorrhage, and overcoming challenges large and small – such as typing all her work one-handed: “Shakespeare wrote all his plays one-handed with a feather,” she says. She also reveals the identity of her favourite fictional antihero (clue: he’s sexy but mean). Produced and presented by Martina Devlin with music by Daragh Dukes.

Listen back to Dublin: One City, One Book 2018, when we celebrated The Long Gaze Back, and the female voice in Irish literature. This anthology of 30 short stories is edited by Sinead Gleeson. In this episode novelist and journalist Martina Devlin discusses the fascinating letters from Somerville and Ross n the early 1900s. Edith Somerville and her second cousin Violet Martin may have been Victorian women, but their flair, business expertise and ambition were ultra-modern. From their light-hearted Irish R.M. series of stories to darker novels including the classic The Real Charlotte, their skills as the Somerville and Ross writing duo were wide-ranging. Their talents extended to their correspondence, and the voices of these irrepressible, talented Women of Letters emerges in their dispatches to Lady Gregory, their literary agent, James Pinker – and to each other.

Dublin Festival of History 2016 panel with Martina Devlin, Diarmaid Ferriter, Patsy McGarry, Ronan McGreevy, Margaret O’Callaghan and moderator Sarah Carey. Despite the many dire warnings of the risks involved in the 1916 commemorations, the general consensus confirmed that Ireland had not only conducted them with dignity and gravitas but had also succeeded in igniting a public mood of pride and confidence as people streamed onto the streets to remember Ireland’s journey towards self-determination.
