Many were first published in The Irish Times; the essays deal with a wide range and number of interesting people - Derrick Jensen, David Abram, Amin Maalouf, Wolfi Landstreicher, Rabindranath Tagore, Cathal Searcaigh, Svetlana Marisova and more besides. Issues relating to religion and politics, nationalism v. anarchy, for example, questions of language and poetry, of course, environmental issues, and haiku. We all know nowadays what haiku is, but what is renku? Read more. Read about an unusual community in India, the Bishnoi, and much more. Food for thought for that rara avis of these days: the Irish reader. |
