REVIEWING OLDS ON ARENA TONIGHT


I'll be reviewing Sharon Olds's T.S. Eliot Prize-winning poetry collection, Stag's Leap, on Arena on RTÉ Radio 1 tonight. 7pm - 8pm.

I am excited that she is coming to read at Cúirt in Galway on the 26th of April. Tickets on sale 13th March.

  1. Bet it was wonderful. I can get ClareFm all the way here in the US but have trouble hearing RTE' live. Oh well, instead I took a bath and took Junos Charm with me. It was lovely. Reading your poetry 5-6-7-8 times is grand

  2. Hi Donna, I am doing the review later tonight and it will be available to listen back to online from tomorrow.
    Glad to hear you like TJC enough for the bath :)
    You are the 2nd reader in as many days to tell me they are bathing with my books!! I think it's great!

  3. Great Nuala! I've just checked that I can listen to RTE Radio here in Italy too. I read an article on the Independent about Sharon Olds' poetry last January and I was very positive impressed. I don't know if she has already been translated into Italian, anyway I will read her poems in English.

  4. Hi Alessia
    The broadcast is online now here at: http://www.rte.ie/radio1/arena/
    Click on Monday 4th March in the side tab. My bit is 20 minutes in.

    I wonder if she has been translated? Either way, enjoy!
