It was a huge privilege being able to view the exhibition honouring WB Yeats and something I’d recommend to all. It’s particularly amazing hearing a recording of his voice, listening to the amazingly powerful way he delivered his poems. Staggeringly potent and intimate.

We have an ongoing exhibition celebrating the Life and Works of William Butler Yeats here in Dublin, but for those of you who are far, far away, it’s also online…
