The Geneva Window, the exquisite but ill-fated final masterpiece by Ireland’s “strangest genius” Harry Clarke. I tell its emotional story in my novel. 2nd pic is the Nelly the dancer from Liam O’Flaherty’s ‘Mr Gilhooley’, made for the Geneva Window. It’s in the Hugh Lane Gallery.

'There is a saying that you should ‘give someone their flowers’ before it is too late. I hope that Seán Rocks knew to some degree how respected he was, and how much his work on Arena has mattered to art-makers, journalists and art-lovers.' ❤️
It's important to tell people now what they mean to you✨️

'People who speak about the olden days with fondness often joke about the ice on the inside of the windows...'
This is a great piece by Kit. There is no nostalgia in childhood poverty and never will be, not least because it is not in the past (where it belongs).

Am reading this now. And it reminds me of Tales of the City with its community, life in a new place, good-heartedness, family connections and secrets.

Cover of The Inheritance. A wood, hues of green, the shapes of two figures walk towards each other.
It’s lovely, @cauverymadhavan.bsky.social The Inheritance - the inheritee being Marlo, a quaint house on Ireland’s Beara peninsula. Starting alone he acquires a crow, a blind cow, befriends the numerous locals. There’s history and History and warmth and tears. A book to cuddle up and read.

(They have really nice short story books that are smaller than a typical paperback. Makes me happy anyway.)

@irishpen.bsky.social appeals to Turkey to release journalist @JoakimMedin at a hearing tomorrow in Ankara. He travelled to Istanbul on 27th March to cover the nationwide protests. He has been charged with "insulting the president" @pensweden.bsky.social
