Very sorry to hear of Patricia's death. She showed me a draft of the first act of Eclipsed and it was electrifying. She broke the silence with artful compassion. Patricia Burke Brogan, whose play exposed brutality of Magdalene laundries, has died aged 90 https://t.co/UO5zhQnB1a

I think one of the hopeful things about the Irish story is that it shows you that you can transform a nation. You can make it, in many ways, an awful lot better than it was. You can open it up to the world...And yet you can still feel very much attached to a place of an identity.

Remembering Peasants: A Personal History of a Vanished World
Patrick Joyce![Fintan O'Toole](https://d1iyvy95qprisd.cloudfront.net/avatars-md/f889a67c-e5eb-450e-b106-9c17ab891ef2.webp)
[In] his beautifully written book... Joyce lures us into the collective mentalities of the European peasantry... His achievement is to leave them a little more visible, a little less silent.
