Available for over a year

De thairbhe ‘Litríocht na Gaeilge ar fud an Domhain’, a bheith mar ábhar díospóireachta do chomhdháil speisialta i mBaile Átha Cliath, thapaigh Máire Bhreathnach an deis aithne níos fearr a chur ar an scríbhneoir Gaeilge mór le rá, an tOllamh Alan Titley. Is scoláire, staraí, craoltóir, criticeoir, úrscéalaí, gearrscéalaí, dramadóir agus colúnaí é Alan agus labhraíonn sé le Máire faoina óige agus é ag fás aníos i gCorcaigh sna daichidí i measc neart eile. As a special convention in Dublin prepares to debate ‘Irish Language Literature around the World’, Máire Bhreathnach gets to know the prominent Irish Language author, Professor Alan Titley. A scholar, historian, broadcaster, critic, novelist, short story writer, dramatist, and columnist, Alan chats to Máire about growing up in Cork in the forties and much else besides.
