Join us for a conversation with Colin Barrett as he nears the end of his term as Writer-in-Residence at UCD – a year in which his debut novel Wild Houses was published and subsequently longlisted for the Booker Prize. The conversation will also feature Declan Meade, Publisher/Chief Executive of The Stinging Fly, which published several of Barrett’s early stories as well as his first collection Young Skins (2013). In conversation with Niamh Campbell (author of This Happy and We Were Young), we’ll hear about Barrett’s journey as a writer as well as Irish writing infrastructures, the novel and the short story, literary journals, literary prizes, and more. The conversation will begin at 2pm; a coffee reception will precede the event at 1:30. Supported by the Research Ireland-funded project The Publishing Infrastructures of Contemporary Anglophone Literature (led by Dr Tim Groenland, School of English, Drama and Film, UCD), and presented in association with the UCD Mary Lavin Centre for Creative Writing.
