SUMMARY:Neil Jordan - 25 Nov
DESCRIPTION:Neil Jordan is unique in his success both as a fiction writer and a movie maker. In his new memoir Amnesiac he looks back over his twin careers with a certain amused wonderment – how did he manage all that? The result is a fascinating record of private loves and losses\, of public triumphs and lessons learned\, in a narrative shaped by the hand of an artist. And yes\, there is enough insider Hollywood lore to satisfy the hungriest picturegoer. He is joined in conversation by film and theatre critic Daniel Rosenthal.  \nNeil Jordan is the creative mind behind the films Angel\, Mona Lisa\, Michael Collins\, The Crying Game\, and Interview with the Vampire\, and novels such as The Past and Night in Tunisia. Jordan will explore his past and family history: from growing up near an abandoned estate in Dublin\, to his passion for music and early productions with Jim Sheridan. Hear stories of his collaborations with Stephen Rea\, Jaye Davidson\, Bob Hoskins\, and Tom Cruise\, and reflections on loss\, love\, creativity\, and even the supernatural by one of Ireland’s most unusual artists.

SUMMARY:Nicole Flattery - 12 April 2023
DESCRIPTION:New York in the late 1960s: Mae escapes a run-down an apartment\, an alcoholic mother and her mother’s occasional boyfriend to a new life as a typist for Andy Warhol\, transcribing conversations with his friends and associates to provide the material for an unconventional novel. A mordantly funny investigation of celebrity\, obsession\, womanhood and sexuality\, Nothing Special (Bloomsbury) is itself an unconventional debut novel\, following on from Flattery’s acclaimed short story collection Show Them a Good Time. Nicole will join with James Conor Patterson in conversation on her writing and Nothing Special. \n\n …the thrilling sense of Flattery’s aesthetic and intellectual stringency is what comes to define her seemingly low-key enterprise here. You could almost imagine someone reading Nothing Special and not even noticing Warhol at its heart\, which may be the point of a novel that pictures the lives of his unseen instruments.Anthony Cummins\, The Guardian\n\n\n\n  \n  Speakers and performers:  Nicole Flattery\n\n\n\n  Nicole Flattery\nNicole Flattery is the author of the story collection Show Them A Good Time. She is the winner of An Post Irish Book Award\, the Kate O’Brien Prize\, the London Magazine Prize for Debut Fiction\, and the White Review Short Story Prize. Her work has appeared in the Stinging Fly\, the Guardian\, the White Review\, and the London Review of Books. A graduate of the master’s program in creative writing at Trinity College\, Dublin\, she lives in Galway\, Ireland. \n\nJames Conor Patterson\n\n\n\n  James Conor Patterson\nJames is the author of the poetry collection ‘Bandit Country’ just released by Picador.

SUMMARY:28 Jan - AI\, Sci-Fi and the future of humanity
DESCRIPTION:The second half of our season kicks off with a timely look at how the rapid advance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is shaping our conceptions of the future of humanity. Three sparkling thinkers – Professor Rachel Armstrong\, Julian Gough\, and Mark O’Connell – join us to reflect on the mutual influence of science fiction and scientific development. At a moment when light is being shined on a formerly hidden tradition of Irish Sci-Fi (see Jack Fennell’s anthology of Irish Sc-Fi\, A Brilliant Void) we consider the recent work of our guests and the literary\, technical and moral challenges that are posed by rapidly advancing technology and its potential to take control of\, well\, everything. At a time when technological warfare has taken new turns (Cambridge Analytica\, drones\, Huawei…) it is salutary to consider how the discipline of futurology emerged from science fiction and became a respectable part of university culture in the 60s and 70s. Futurists have since reacted to and engaged with military developments and corporations such as RAND and DARPA (responsible for stealth warplanes\, the internet…). Major military forces commission projections of future dystopian scenarios and then fund solutions to those scenarios – our guests reflect in their books on that entanglement and on how AI is central to some bleak and very plausible dystopian projections. Elon Musk has warned of the incautious development of AI that we are “summoning the demon” and that it is our “greatest existential threat.”   \nA tour de force.Joseph O'Connor on Gough's Connect\nGough’s novel\, Connect\, is set in the near future and explores how human relationships and conceptions of mortality are changed as implants make fuzzy the line between human and AI. The story follows Colt\, an autistic 16-year-old who spends most of his time in virtual reality and his biologist mother\, Naomi\, whose work is guarded jealously by the US military. Connect is a thrillingly smart novel of ideas that explores what connection – both human and otherwise – might be in a digital age. It is a story of mothers and sons\, but also about you\, your phone\, and the future. \nExtraordinary\, utterly vital… A brilliant illumination of the techno-future\, To Be a Machine is also\, and more importantly\, a joyful summation of what it is to be human.Paul Murray on O'Connell's To Be a Machine\nMark O’Connell’s To Be a Machine: Adventures Among Cyborgs\, Utopians\, Hackers\, and the Futurists Solving the Modest Problem of Death reports on the growing movement to attempt to live indefinitely via technology. The aim of this ‘transhumanism’ movement is to use technology to fundamentally change the human condition\, to improve our bodies and minds to the point where we become something other\, and better\, than the animals we are. It is a work full of astonishing encounters with the key players in this movement (Ray Kurzweil\, the Oxford Future of Humanity Institute\, Google\, DARPA…)\, is an exposition of its philosophical and scientific roots and considers what it might mean for our possible futures.   \n  \n\nChair: Professor Rachel Armstrong  is Professor of Experimental Architecture at the School of Architecture\, Planning and Landscape\, Newcastle University. She is Director and founder of the Experimental Architecture Group (EAG) whose work has been published widely as well as exhibited and performed. Rachel investigates a new approach to building materials called ‘living architecture\,’ which suggests it is possible for our buildings to share some of the properties of living systems. Current titles include a sci-fi novel Origamy\, (NewCon Press) and Soft Living Architecture: An Alternative View of Bio-informed Practice\, (Bloomsbury Academic)  She is the author of Vibrant Architecture: Matter as Co-Designer of Living Structures (DeGruyter Open)\, Star Ark: A Living Self-Sustaining Spaceship (Springer Praxis books)\, Soft Living Architecture: An Alternative View of Bio-design (Bloomsbury Academic\, In Press)\, Liquid Life: On Non-linear Materiality (Punctum\, In Press)  She is co-author of Handbook of the Unknowable\, with Rolf Hughes. Follow Rachel on twitter \n. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Julian Gough \n\n\n\nJulian Gough is the author of three comic novels and was formerly the lead singer of the underground literary band Toasted Heretic. He was born in London\, raised in Tipperary\, and educated in Galway. He won the BBC National Short Story Award in 2007 and was shortlisted for the Everyman Bollinger Wodehouse Prize in 2008 and 2012. In 2011 he wrote the ending to Minecraft\, Time magazine’s computer game of the year. His funniest\, and oddest (and most prize-winning) novel is Jude in Ireland. It concerns a young Irish orphan’s search for true love. Neil Gaiman called Rabbit’s Bad Habits (2016)\, “a laugh-out-loud story”\, and Eoin Colfer called “an instant modern classic”. He draws on his knowledge of computer games in his novel Connect. Follow Julian on twitter. \n  \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Mark O’Connell \nMark O’Connell is a journalist\, essayist and literary critic from Dublin. He is a books columnist for Slate\, a staff writer at The Millions\, and a regular contributor to the New Yorker’s Page-Turner blog and the Dublin Review; his work has been published in the New York Times Magazine\, the New York Times Book Review and the Observer.

He was an Irish Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow from 2011 to 2012 at Trinity College\, where he taught contemporary literature. His book\, To Be a Machine: Adventures Among Cyborgs\, Utopians\, Hackers\, and the Futurists Solving the Modest Problem of Death\, won the 2018 Wellcome book prize.

SUMMARY:Eavan Boland - 26 June 2017
DESCRIPTION:Widely considered to be one of Ireland’s most important contemporary poets\, Eavan Boland is currently a Professor of Humanities and Director of the Creative Writing Programme at Stanford University\, where she has taught since 1996. In 2015 a New Collected Poems was published\, and Eavan Boland: Inside History\, a book celebrating her long and distinguished career\, was recently published by Arlen House\, its editor will join in conversation with Boland. In January 2017 Boland was appointed editor of Poetry Ireland Review.\nPoetry has been an integral part of Eavan Boland’s life since she was a young girl. In college she wrote her first publication\, 23 Poems. She has gone on to publish nearly 20 books of poetry\, winning awards and accolades from readers and critics alike. Boland\, a self-described “woman poet\,” has always had trouble reconciling those two words. “It was like there was a magnetic opposition between the two concepts\,” she said. “The woman coming from the collective sense of nurture in Ireland\, and the poet coming from the much more individualist\, creative realm.” Mary Robinson quoted Eavan Boland’s poetry during her inaugural speech as President of Ireland in Dublin Castle on 3 December 1990\, and on 15 March 2016 President Obama quoted lines from her poem “On a Thirtieth Anniversary” (from Against Love Poetry) in his remarks at a reception in the White House to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. \nBoland’s is a fascinating career which develops from her early attachment to Yeats\, her growing unease with the absence of women’s writing\, her encounter with pioneering American poets like Sylvia Plath\, Elizabeth Bishop\, and Adrienne Rich\, and her lucid\, critical engagement through poetry and prose with Ireland’s poetic tradition. \nThis event was formerly advertised as the ILS Annual Dinner\, the dinner part of the evening has now been cancelled. \nGuest of Honour: Eavan Boland\n \nBoland\, the youngest of five children\, was born in Dublin in 1944. Her father was a diplomat\, her mother\, Frances Kelly\, an artist. The family moved to London when Boland was six and she went to school there until 1956. Her poem An Irish Childhood in England: 1951 recalls her sense of otherness at this early age: \n…the teacher in the London convent who\,\nwhen I produced “I amn’t” in the classroom\nturned and said — “You’re not in Ireland now.” \nDuring her father’s next posting\, from 1956 until 1960\, the family lived in New York. Boland returned to Dublin and to boarding school at the Convent of the Holy Child in Killiney when she was fifteen. At Trinity College she studied Latin and English and graduated with a first-class honours degree in 1966. She lectured in Trinity 1967-1968 and then resigned to devote her time to writing. She wrote poems as a child and had published poems in the Irish Times while still an undergraduate. She published her first collection\, New Territory\, in 1967\, when she was twenty-two. During the 1970s she gave writing workshops throughout Ireland and in 1980 she co-founded Arlen House\, an Irish feminist press. \nFor Boland\, what she calls ‘the placelessness of her childhood’ and ‘her emphatic sense of living in a suburb in her own home’ were important influences on her work. In 1969\, in her mid-twenties\, she married the novelist Kevin Casey. They moved to a house in the Dublin suburbs in the early 1970s and have two daughters. A grandchild was born in 2014. She has written of motherhood and suburban life and according to Declan Kiberd ‘She is one of the very few Irish poets to describe with any fidelity the lives now lived by half a million people in the suburbs of Dublin.’ \nSince 1996\, Boland spends the academic year at Stanford College\, Palo Alto\, California\, where she is a Professor of Humanities and Director of the Creative Writing Programme\, but she calls Dundrum home. Speaking in 1988\, Boland said of herself: ‘I see myself as an Irish poet\, I think it’s important that Irish poets have a discourse with the idea of Irishness\, and I think it’s probably very important that an Irish woman poet doesn’t shirk that discourse because there have been gaps\, vacancies or silences in literature’.

SUMMARY:Sebastian Barry - 30 Jan
DESCRIPTION:The great Irish writer Sebastian Barry visits the ILS on 30 January to join in conversation with Prof Roy Foster about his new novel Days Without End. \nThe novel continues Barry’s saga of two Irish families\, the Dunnes and the McNultys\, which has spanned several novels and multiple time frames and locations. The Guardian has called the sequence ‘one of the most compelling\, bravura and heart-wrenching fictional projects of recent memory.’A beautiful\, savage\, tender\, searing work of art. Sentence after perfect sentence it grips and does not let go.Donal Ryan \n‘Time was not something then we thought of as an item that possessed an ending\,\nbut something that would go on for ever\, all rested and stopped in that moment.\nHard to say what I mean by that. You look back at all the endless years when you\nnever had that thought. I am doing that now as I write these words in Tennessee. I\nam thinking of the days without end of my life. And it is not like that now…’ \nAfter signing up for the US army in the 1850s\, aged barely seventeen\, Thomas\nMcNulty and his brother-in-arms\, John Cole\, go on to fight in the Indian wars and\,\nultimately\, the Civil War. Having fled terrible hardships themselves\, they find these days to be vivid and filled with wonder\, despite the horrors they both witness and are complicit in. Their lives are further enriched and endangered when a young Indian girl crosses their path\, and the possibility of lasting happiness emerges\, if only they can survive.A violent\, superbly lyrical western offering a sweeping vision of America in the making [and] the most fascinating line-by-line first person narration I’ve come across in years.Kazuo Ishiguro \nMoving from the plains of the West to Tennessee\, Sebastian Barry’s latest work is a masterpiece of atmosphere and language. Both an intensely poignant story of two men and the lives they are dealt\, and a fresh look at some of the most fateful years in America’s past\, Days Without End is a novel never to be forgotten. \nSpeakers:\n\nSebastian Barry\nSebastian Barry was born in Dublin in 1955. His novels and plays have won the Costa Book of the Year award\, the Kerry Group Irish Fiction Prize\, the Irish Book Awards Novel of the Year\, the Independent Booksellers Prize and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. He also had two consecutive novels\, A Long Long Way (2005) and the top ten bestseller The Secret Scripture (2008)\, shortlisted for the MAN Booker Prize. He lives in Wicklow.\n\n\nProf Roy Foster\nRoy Foster recently retired as Carroll Professor of Irish history at Oxford\, he is a fellow of Hertford College. He has written widely on Irish history\, society and politics in the modern period\, as well as on Victorian high politics and culture. Foster produced a widely acclaimed biography of William Butler Yeats which was awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. In Words Alone: Yeats and his inheritances (2011)\, he presents a re-reading of Irish literary history throughout the nineteenth century and places Yeats and his inspirations in apposition to a much wider range of literary and political precursors than is usually the case. His most recent book is Vivid Faces: the revolutionary generation in Ireland 1890-1914.
