Story1
Blending Eastern and Western philosophies, Moriarty seeks to unveil the innate connection between religion and spirituality. 'Seeking to Walk Beautifully on the Earth' details Moriarty's exploration of six Indian-American stories, capturing the time when Moriarty de-Europeanised himself and lived through the Native American myths, as he felt they had more resonance than some European myths.

Welcome to the small seaside town of Llareggub. Here you will find dreamers, workers, singers, sinners, the young, old, blue, bold and a mix of all in between. Here you will meet Captain Cat and Rosie Probert, Mr Organ Morgan and Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard, Nogood Boyo, Mog and Myfanwy. Here you will watch a day in their lives play out - from a dark, moonless night to a morning that is busy as bees; from a sunny, slow lulling afternoon to a deep, drifting dusk. So, to begin at the beginning.

Vinegar Hill explores the liminal space between private experiences and public events as Tóibín examines a wide range of subjects—politics, queer love, reflections on literary and artistic greats, living through COVID, memory and a fading past, and facing mortality. The poems reflect a life well-travelled and well-lived; from growing up in the town of Enniscorthy, wandering the streets of Dublin and Barcelona, and crossing the bridges of Venice to visiting the White House, listeners will travel through familiar locations and new destinations through Tóibín's unique lens.

'The Waste Land' is a landmark in 20th-century poetry. Here it is read by the late Poet Laureate Ted Hughes. Published in 1922, it is a brilliant exploration of a faithless, immoral society trying to rebuild itself after the devastation of the Great War. Rich in literary references and steeped in allusive and evocative imagery, 'The Waste Land' is widely considered to be the pinnacle of modernist poetry.
