What! I thought our grandparents ran him out of Ireland and banned his work from being published here , looks like we are celebrating him now ….
Cian
My grandparents didn’t. I dunno about yours…
Mickey Twopints
Mine almost certainly did, the craw thumpers.

I’ve heard of Leah Kenny but who is Samuel Beckett?
Liam Deliverance
Is the great,late Mr Beckett sporting a 4-colour pen?!

The Bic 4-colour pen came out in April 1970

Trinity needs to start doing degrees in street smart.
Where in order to obtain a degree you have to have had a one hour conversation with 100 random people, that you would meet on college green.
This degree should not be exclusive to Trinity though
If we could get some respected on line news site to sponsor the course there could be many a mind walking around a BS qualification.
Only then can we possibly consider each other as equal and respectful to each other’s needs

Good idea. Who needs to actually, you know LEARN anything when you can just chill out and blaze it and act like you know anything

Liam Deliverance

So we’ve figured out who Leah is
But why’s she there, and why’s she so large?
according to the introduction this art piece wants to elaborate the knowledge passing by generations, as Leah is doing her dissertation on Samule Beckett’s work.
This is a genuine question, I’m not trying to be smart, but who is Leah Kenny?
The fact you had to qualify the question is sad, even though it is a perfectly reasonable one.
No clue here either btw.
It’s impossible to know by text if someone is being sarcastic or genuinely doesn’t know.
/S = sarcasm
the kids tack on /S apparently
dunno on genuinely but it could be /miriamocallaghan
+10 genuine points for you!
Genuinely.
No sarc intended :)
A student of Beckett literary works, I believe…

It is all about the money.
They’re hoping this will generate attention and help them fundraise €400 million.
