Home and Belonging in the Works of MacNeice and Beyond

2B Joymount, Carrickfergus, County Antrim, BT38 7DN
The Louis MacNeice Literary Festival, 18th-20th October. Image shows a row of books by and about Louis MacNeice

About

Chaired by local author, historian and playwright Philip Orr, we have invited a range of experts to discuss the themes of home and belonging in the works of MacNeice and how this has influenced their own work. We will be joined by Professor Emerita Edna Longley, Dr Angeline King and Dr Michael Kinsella.

This will be a lovely relaxed evening with stimulating chat, so bring your questions and a bottle of wine or a cup of tea and settle in to hearing about Carrickfergus's special relationship with MacNeice.
