RIP Paul Auster. The New York Trilogy and The Book Of Illusions are great, and his last book, Baumgartner, was pretty good too. @businessposthq businesspost.ie/life-arts/book…
That is a sad story. @JohnBoyneBooks @PenguinIEBooks
Talking of @springsteen I want to say thanks to the kind and thoughtful @JaneyMcJaq @SonyMusicIre who was good enough to send this out last week. I really do appreciate it.
"Knocks are an essential part of the deal." Willie Nelson turns 91 today. This is just one of the many fine albums he's released in the last ten years. @WillieNelson @SonyMusicIre #WillieNelson hotpress.com/opinion/album-…
Writing about Springsteen and I came to the part in 'Bobby Jean' where he tells him he misses him. All the hairs on my arm shot up and I remembered weeping when he played it in Munich last year. Powerful magic. He really is The Boss.
Three Destinies: I reviewed Broken Archangel: The Tempestuous Lives Of Roger Casement by Roland Philipps for @TheSundayIndo. @philipps_roland @TheBodleyHead @PenguinIEBooks @MadeleineKeane1 @AlanEnglish9 independent.ie/entertainment/…
Another @amortowles book that you don’t want to end.
Down the back of the new issue of @ClassicRockMag I review @simplemindscom and @DelAmitri @3ArenaDublin (Thanks @mcd_productions and @screampr) and peruse @MicajahHenley's @333books reappraisal of Sandinista! by @TheClash (thanks @BloomsburyBooks). Out now. Rock on.

Fantastic review of #QuicklyWhileTheyStillHaveHorses in today’s print copy of the Sunday Business Post. Very grateful to Pat Carty for careful reading, extremely generous analysis and never questioning my sense of humour

Spent a week with us in DL and was a pure delight. irishtimes.com/news/from-beck…

Many thanks. I am glad that you enjoyed ‘Pilgrim Soul’. Feedback from readers means a lot to me. It’s how I judge the worth of what I have written.
@DanMulhall @PresidentIRL Great company! Just finished reading your illuminating book 'Pilgrim Soul' marking the work of W.B. Yeats as Ireland’s national poet & the changing Ireland & historical events he wrote about it. Very compelling. Your understanding of Ireland, its people & culture, is inspiring.
Very sorry to hear of the passing of Paul Auster. We travelled to interview him for television and he was good and gracious company. We talked a lot about Sligo. Argue & Phibbs.
Hendersons Relish with Guinness @RichardHawley
He’s not new around these parts and I can guarantee if you’ve loved any previous @RichardHawley record, this one will be for you. It’s a tenner, a 10 out of tenner.
@Paddyrun1 It’s not his best but it’s still better than most people’s attempts at a novella
I read a lot of cracking books in April. Here’s a round up of the best nine books I read for the first time this month
Delighted to have this out! Our new single, Wake Up People, from our new album is out on May 10th.. The legendary @talldanhegarty is premiering it on his @RTE2fm show tonight.. hope you like it 🙏☺️
So, it's been a long time coming but we are extremely excited to announce a brand new Sack single entitled 'Wake Up People' which comes out very soon. You can tune into @talldanhegarty Alternative on @2fmrte at 11pm tonight to hear it get its first radio play. More news soon!

Current read is packed with gorgeous prose "it rouses the fields from their usual soft somnolence to a spiky, embattled vividness." The Hunter by Tana French is superb, pure joy to read and dare I say it, her best yet. IMHO. @PenguinIEBooks @ClionaLewis #TanaFrench #MustReads
@Pat_Carty @Steven__C Or some old befuddled men playing one song in 3 different keys

@Pat_Carty @springsteen Surely Bobby Jean is female
@Pat_Carty @aikenpromotions @springsteen @SonyMusicIre He played Bobby Jean instead of Thunder Road at the Dublin show I was at last year (I believe he played TR on the other two?!). I mean... Thunder Road is incredible, obviously. But fair substitute
It’s Willie Nelson’s 91st birthday so today I shall be mostly wearing the #WillieNelson bandana I purchased at his 85th birthday party in Nashville. I may also, time permitting, rob a bank! Expect a lot of the man’s music on the radio show tonight from 8pm. #happybirthdaywillie

Willie Nelson turns 91 tomorrow. What a life. When I wrote my Willie biography, The Outlaw, in 2006, it ended on a somewhat valedictory note. Little did I know! I'd like people to read The Outlaw, a good book that was poorly published. The kindle is here: amazon.co.uk/dp/B008FY4PAY
