Seamus Heaney

Happy St Patrick’s Day! I thought I’d use it as an excuse to share this video of Seamus Heaney reading and discussing some of his poems;

I was lucky enough to see him reading from one of his later collections at an event at the Royal Festival Hall on London’s South Bank. More of this, perhaps, on another occasion as I have to get back to the day job in social media management. Truly I am living the dream…
