$10.00$10. Located in the McKiernan Library.
One can curse in Irish in devastating fashion without being crude. Yet one can also wish one well with unparalleled elegance and economy of words. “May your path be always safe.”
There are no limits to the language mastery in this literary jewel, with expressions that are sought after, and curious phrases that can delight or upset an acquaintance. Join Lavinia Finnerty as she shares some of these gems, and stories from her own upbringing.
This event is part of the Irish Arts Week.
