    • Gerard McCarthy's 'Old Istanbul & Other Essays': Manus Charleton and Nora McGillen

      Gerard McCarthy's 'Old Istanbul & Other Essays': Manus Charleton and Nora McGillen
      Aug 10 2023
      Manus Charleton and Nora McGillen talk to Irish Pages editor Chris Agee about Old Istanbul & Other Essays, the first collection of essays by Gerard McCarthy, who died shortly before their publication in 2022. McCarthy’s dazzling philosophical writing occupies the region where philosophy merges into literature, drawing deeply on the influence of Nietzsche, Marcus Aurelius and Montaigne. Manus and Nora discuss their memories of Gerard and his life and work as a social worker and writer, and some of his philosophical preoccupations, including his quest for silence, the world beyond language and the human search for meaning.

      Luka Bekavac and Igor Sticks: ‘August After Midnight’ and ‘W’
      Jul 21 2023

      Croatian novelists Luka Bekavac and Igor Štiks discuss their latest novels, August After Midnight and W, published in English by Irish Pages Press, with Jacob Agee, Managing Editor at Irish Pages. Bekavac explains the complex, experimental form of August After Midnight, and why transcommunication and the region of Slavonia in northeast Croatia play a central role in his work. Štiks talks about the detailed account of recent revolutionary history in W, the division in left-wing politics that runs through it, and how he fed that material into a dramatic mystery thriller.

      Chris Preddle talks to Irish Pages Managing Editor Milena Williamson about his recent translations of Sappho's songs and poems, published by Irish Pages Press. He describes how he fell in love with Sappho's poetry, the technical challenges of translating her work into English, the world of Lesbos in which she lived around 600 BCE, the different genres of poetry she wrote, and whether he considers her a feminist. He also reads several of her poems, both in his English translation and in the Ancient Greek.
