Event: Author Visit

The Author a Month for November was Brian Gallagher. Brian is well known in Ireland's theatre community as well as in RTE where he worked as a writer on Fair City for twelve years.








Brian's newest book, Across the Divide, is set in Dublin in 1913 during the Lockout. Nora and Liam come from opposite sides of Dublin's social divide, but their love of Feis Ceoil brings them together. When Larkin's strikes start gaining power, their friendship is threatened...

Brian visited with two groups of children from a local school and explained a little about writing and about the historical background to the novel. We'd like to thank him for traveling to be with us today.

Event: Author Visit

This month's Author was Aubrey Flegg, Author of the Louise trilogy, Katie's War and The Cinnamon Tree, and the newly published Fugitives! a story of the Flight of the Earls. Aubrey met two groups of children from a local school and talked a little about his life and some of the experiences that later became novels.




We'd like to thank Aubrey for traveling to visit with us today.

Author a Month: Marilyn Taylor

Our Author a Month program got off to a great start this morning, as Marilyn Taylor met with two groups of children from local schools. Marilyn discussed her two historical novels, Faraway Home and 17 Martin Street. The groups had an opportunity to ask questions, and Marilyn signed several copies of each book for our stock.


We'd like to thank Marilyn for travelling from Dublin to visit us today.
