Book Club: ‘Intimate City: Dublin Essays’ by Peter Sirr

This event has ended

Online, Tuesday 28th September - Thursday 30th September

This September, our book clubs will read and discuss Intimate City: Dublin Essays by Peter Sirr.

How well do you think you know the city of Dublin? Do you ever find something catching your eye on a street that you have walked every day and never noticed before?

In these newly published essays, Peter Sirr takes us wandering through the streets of Dublin, past and present to pull back the layers.

Trace old routes and discover new ones, listening for the steps of those who have gone before in a city where people have lived and died for over a thousand years.
