LITERATURE, FILM, THEATER & COMEDY
A multi-generational family story of the west of Ireland and its women and a love story of second chances from the Booker-longlisted author of How to Build a Boat
Join us at the Irish Center as we screen Cal!
Fast-paced and funny. Scientific and tender. A literary thriller featuring Auks. As if Hilary Mantel’s The Giant, O’Brien met Robinson Crusoe, here is a story of one man’s growing humanity amidst famine and extinction.
Join us at the Irish Center as we screen Horseshoe!
Bitel retells little-known, anonymous tales from Ireland, written a thousand years ago or more, about human and supernatural lovers who cross the boundaries between our world and the Otherworld.
From Colm Tóibín, “one of the world’s best living literary writers” (The Boston Globe), comes a brilliant collection of nine short stories, many never-before-published, set across Ireland, Spain, and America—about the complexities of family, longing, loss, and love.
A spellbinding story of separation, longing, recovery and survival as a family makes a new home in the aftermath of tragedy.
Walk the Blue Fields, an unforgettable array of quietly wrenching stories about despair and desire in the timeless world of modern-day Ireland.
MUSIC
Join us as we welcome producer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer Elias Alexander!
Having studied bagpipes, fiddle, whistles, and guitar from a young age, Elias has found a way to weave his traditional music background into modern sounds, creating a blend that feels timeless, crossing generations while remaining deeply personal and authentic.
