The Literary Life







Here you see me sharing a private moment with W.B. Yeats during our road trip to Sligo, the place that inspired much of his haunting poetry.

In addition, I had the opportunity to meet with Seamus Heaney (see below), to visit to the house of Nora Barnacle, wife and muse of James Joyce, in Galway, to participate in a literary pub crawl in Dublin, and to follow the Bronte pathway alongside the homeland of Patrick Bronte, father of those brilliant Bronte girls. Across Ireland, I explored the scenery that has inspired poets, novelists, singers, and artists of all descriptions.
