Before coming to Ireland, I was warned not to have any romantic notions about the ‘Emerald Isle’. My Irish friend had travelled to my home country of Canada and was aware that many Canadians, especially those of Irish ancestry, have notions of Ireland that are based on commercial hype about leprechauns and beer and on the nostalgic laments of The Chieftains and the Irish Tenors about rolling hills and a glorious past.

In the corner of the screeb of every national TV channel in Spain. In the corner of every local cable TV station in Spain. On the banner of most national newspapers. On the doors of many shops, retail chains, ministry of culture, museums, libraries. In madrid the route of the concentration was overlooked by black ribbons hanging from the tower blocks. ... read full story / add a comment
