As if nothing could fall: Essays on monuments
About this Event

You are welcome to join us for the book launch of PVA Books' new collection of essays!

We are delighted to announce the launch of As if nothing could fall: Essays on monuments. The launch will take place at Books Upstairs in Dublin, and there will be refreshments, plenty of books, and readings from Julie Bates, Gavin Corbett, Roisin Kiberd and Neil Hegarty. Please feel welcome to come.

The fourth in our series of non-fiction collections, As if nothing could fall: Essays on monuments, takes us through distant vistas and past worlds, monolithic structures and forgotten ideas. These seventeen new personal essays, from some of the most brilliant writers at work today, reflect on how and why we imbue the objects around us with memory.

With contributions by Julie Bates, Amit Chaudhuri, Gavin Corbett, Beulah Ezeugo, Niven Govinden, Neil Hegarty, Dan Hicks, Roisin Kiberd, Sean Lynch, Gail McConnell, Belinda McKeon, Philip Ó Ceallaigh, Rebecca O’Dwyer, Lara Pawson, Slinko, Lynne Tillman and John Tuomey.
