  • MoLI, in collaboration with the UCD Centre for Cultural Analytics, presents its fourth annual Christmas Ghost Story: ‘Number Ninety’ (1895) by Bithia May Croker, performed by Ned Dennehy.


    For years, agents have attempted to secure a lease for Number Ninety, a desirable family mansion, at almost no cost. Long rumoured to be haunted, it has never found a long-term tenant.


    Sceptic John Hollyoak sets out to prove that ghosts do not exist. He will spend the night in Number Ninety, with no soul but his dog for company. Will ghostly companions intrude upon his solitude, and will he live to tell the tale?

  • MoLI presents the third annual MoLI Christmas Ghost Story: ‘Hertford O’Donnell’s Warning’ (1867) by Charlotte Riddell, performed by Kathy Rose O’Brien, in an edited and abridged form.

    Surgeon Hertford O’Donnell is a rising star at Guy’s Hospital, London, known for his steady hand and unshakeable bravery. In his personal life, however, the eccentric and lonely Irishman has a less than sterling reputation.

    All alone on Christmas Eve, he receives an unexpected visit from Ireland. Estranged from his family for over twelve years, the O’Donnell banshee visits him in his Soho townhouse, bringing tidings of death and retribution for the past.

    Will Hertford O’Donnell survive the night, or does the banshee cry for him?

  • Every Life is Many Days is a podcast about James Joyce and his family in the contemporary novel. Presented by Professor Anne Fogarty of the School of English, Drama and Film at UCD and Director of the UCD James Joyce Research Centre, the podcast looks at how the many gaps between Joyce the man and Joyce the writer have in recent years been movingly explored in a number of novels that think about his life in very different ways.

    In this episode, writer Nuala O’Connor discusses her novel Nora, the challenges of writing a historical figure as a fictional character, and much more.

    Nuala O’Connor was born in Dublin in 1970 and lives in County Galway.

    2022 marks the centenary of the publication of Ulysses on the 2 February 1922 by Shakespeare and Company in Paris. Inevitably, much attention will centre on Ulyssesthis year, but the centenary also provides an opportunity to reconsider James Joyce’s legacy and to think about how we view him both as a person and as a literary icon.

    The series features the work of five authors who have woven Joyce and his family into their novels: Anna Vaught, Nuala O’Connor, Frank McGuinness, Mary Costello, and Mary Morrissey. In conversation with them, we will discuss many aspects of Joyce’s influence on the modern novel. We’ll examine the much mythologised, but often unremembered, aspects of the lives of his partner, Nora Barnacle, and Lucia Joyce and Georgio Joyce, Joyce’s son and daughter. This podcast explores why Joyce continues to act as such a lively source of inspiration for contemporary fiction writers.

    Anna Vaught is a novelist, poet, essayist, short fiction writer, editor, proof-reader, copywriter and also a secondary English teacher, tutor, mentor to young people, mental health advocate, campaigner and mother of three. Her Saving Lucia (Bluemoose, 2020) intertwines the stories of Violet Gibson, the Irish aristocrat who shot Mussolini, Lucia Joyce, daughter of James Joyce, Blanche, a patient of Charcot at the Salpetrière clinic in Paris, and Anna O, analysed and written about by Josef Breuer and Sigmund Freud. Anna’s reviews, features, short stories, creative nonfiction, poems and memoir pieces are widely published in journals, anthologies, and the press; she is also a monthly columnist for The Bookseller. She has written a new novel, The Zebra and Lord Jones, and a non-fiction book on gentle productivity in writing, The Alchemy. annavaughtwrites.com

  • MoLI continues its annual Christmas Ghost Story tradition with Elizabeth Bowen’s ‘The Demon Lover’ (1945), performed in its entirety by Derbhle Crotty.

    Mrs Kathleen Drover returns to her dusty, abandoned Kensington home to gather some of her family’s forgotten belongings. Set in London during World War II, the city is eerily vacant, as families like her own have been evacuated to the countryside to escape the bombings of the Blitz. Nevertheless, Kathleen experiences the distinct and unsettling feeling of being watched. When she discovers a mysterious letter from her former lover, a soldier killed in World War I, memories of their brief courtship and his cold, controlling manner overwhelm her.

    Is the letter a cruel joke? Could it be a fabrication of Kathleen’s imagination? Or more frighteningly, are the ghosts of her past reckoning upon the present? In this chilling and uncanny tale, Bowen demonstrates her mastery of the ghost story form.

    Funding for this recording is supported by Professor Gerardine Meaney and the European Research Council advanced grant, VICTEUR: European Migrants in the British Imagination: Victorian and Neo-Victorian Culture. Research is supported by Dr Katie Mishler and the Irish Research Council Postdoctoral Enterprise Partnership Fellowship grant Mapping Gothic Dublin, in association with MoLI and the UCD Centre for Cultural Analytics.

  • RadioMoLI’s Writer Presents series invites writers to produce a radio programme focussing on and exploring a chosen subject that is close to their heart. In the second episode of Writer Presents, the poet, playwright and novelist Dermot Bolger looks at the life and enduring legacy of Herbert Simms (1898-1948) – the architect responsible for much of Dublin’s early twentieth-century social housing, whose home on St. Mobhi Road Bolger would pass on his pandemic lockdown walks.

    “I found it fascinating to imagine his life – he was a man who suffered greatly from the strain of his work,” says Bolger. Through conversation with with three geographers – Dr Ruth McManus, Dr Joe Brady and Mary Broe, the writer pieces together the remarkable and tragic story of Simms’ efforts to improve the lives of many Dubliners. Broe, having grown up in Pearse House also sheds a poignant light on the lived experience of Simms’ designs. The programme ends with a powerful reading of Bolgers’ poem about Herbert Simms, ‘The Corporation Housing Architect’.

    Born in Dublin in 1959, the poet, playwright and novelist Dermot Bolger worked as a factory hand, library assistant and small press publisher before becoming a full time writer in 1984. Bolger is the author of fourteen novels, as well as numerous plays and collections of poetry. He lives in Dublin.

  • Do you enjoy reading ghost stories alone at night? Have you ever binged an entire true crime series? Or do you unwind watching horror films like The Exorcist, or reading the supernatural novels of Stephen King? The Dublin Gothic Podcast is a series looking at the intersection between art, psychology, folklore, architecture, natural history and Ireland’s urban gothic writing.

    Vampires, ghosts, and the undead have an enduring cultural legacy. These uncanny figures inform, or perhaps infect, depictions of the body, maternity, and sexuality in contemporary Irish women’s writing. This panel discussion, recorded live in MoLI’s Old Physics Theatre, led by Dr Katie Mishler and featuring Sarah Davis-Goff, Doireann Ní Ghríofa, and Sophie White, uncovers how the gothic monstrosities of Bram Stoker and others continue to be a powerful metaphor for social anxieties, marginalisation, and historical erasure.

    Sarah Davis-Goff is co-founder of Tramp Press, which publishes the Recovered Voices series, re-publishing a lost Irish classic once a year, with a bent towards speculative fiction. In 2019 her own novel Last Ones Left Alive was published in the UK and Ireland by Tinder Press, and in the US by Flatiron. Last Ones Left Alive was nominated for the Edinburgh First Book Prize and the Not-The-Booker Prize, shortlisted for an Irish Book Award and the Kate O’Brien Award, and won the Chrysalis Award. She lives in Dublin.

    Doireann Ní Ghríofa is a poet and essayist. Her prose début A Ghost in the Throat was awarded the James Tait Back Prize for Biography, and described as “powerful” (New York Times), and “captivatingly original” (The Guardian). Doireann is also author of six critically-acclaimed books of poetry, each a deepening exploration of birth, death, desire, and domesticity.

    Sophie White is a writer and podcaster from Dublin. Her first book, a memoir-cookbook work, Recipes for a Nervous Breakdown (Gill 2016) was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards. Her second book and first novel, the bestselling, Filter This (Hachette, 2019) was also shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards. Her third book, Unfiltered (Hachette, 2020) was described by Marian Keyes as ‘such fun – gas, clever stuff’. Her fourth book and second work of non-fiction is the bestselling essay collection, Corpsing: My Body and Other Horror Shows published by Tramp Press in 2021.

    Dr Katie Mishler is an Irish Research Council Enterprise Partnership Postdoctoral Fellow (2020-2022) in collaboration with the UCD Centre for Cultural Analytics and Museum of Literature Ireland (MoLI). Her current project, Mapping Gothic Dublin: 1820-1900, researches the relationship between Dublin’s urban history and the development of Ireland’s literary gothic tradition.
