Dublin Review Conversations: The Edit Suite Booked Out Liam Harrison, Lisa McInerney and Eimear Ryan in conversation with Brendan Barrington

Ireland’s culture of literary journals is the strongest it has been in decades – perhaps ever. For this year’s annual Dublin Review Conversations event, the editors of three journals – Lisa McInerney of The Stinging Fly, Eimear Ryan of Banshee and Liam Harrison of Tolka – join a fourth (The Dublin Review’s Brendan Barrington) to talk about what they do, how they do it, and how their work relates to the broader culture.

This is an 18+ event. The event starts at 6pm. Doors open from 5pm for food and drink. Please visit www.glassmasktheatre.com to browse the menu of delicious evening food and a beautiful wine list available from Bestseller Cafe at the Glass Mask Theatre.

The Glass Mask Theatre is an open plan space with a flight of steps leading up to the main event level, which is not accessible to wheelchairs. For any queries please email us on info@dublinbookfestival.com

Liam Harrison is co-editor of Tolka and a lecturer in creative writing at UWE Bristol.
