Ireland - thoughts and essays

As with any country, Ireland presents many faces, both to its own people and to outsiders. Depending on your "entry point" to Ireland and its culture your picture of what Ireland "is" will be shaped. 

On this page you will find a collection of very brief essays on aspects of Ireland and the Irish. They are personal views and are of course shaped by my experience of my country. Take them as a starting point for your own exploration.

There will be a new essay each morning starting on Tuesday 16th May 2017

Joe Kearns, May 2017
