My book on failure will be out in April! In Failure Narratives Beyond Redemption, I look at how we talk about failure in public discourse, as well as across film, literature, and performance.

The fifth (and first bilingual) edition of the O'Czytani Polish Literary Festival is a wrap! We packed the house in Biblary's HQ in Inchicore for a meeting with Mariusz Szczygieł and a concert by Cezariusz Gadzina&band. Polish culture is part of multicultural Dublin.

Excellent piece on Polishness and identity in Ireland in the Times: www.irishtimes.com/health/your-... For those who understand Polish, check out Ep. 1 of the Polska.IE podcast, where our student Carmen talks about her in-between identity, with an awesome ending: soundcloud.com/polskaie/odc...
