It was a unique experience for me. To be invited to be on a panel as someone who ” is a tireless promoter of reading and books in general” according to Sean Rocks who was presenting the Arena special for Radio 1…

Myself, poets Pat Boran and Enda Wyley on a panel discussing this year’s 1 City 1 Book “If You Ever Go” in a glorious room in Dublin Castle with readings done by the incredible Owen Roe, Gabriel Rosenstock and others while Lisa Hannigan played a couple of tunes in the corner.

Magical.

It’ll be going out on Bank Holiday Monday on RTE Radio 1 at 7pm…

Some pics were taken by me and the 1 City 1 Book people…
