Dialogues through Literature

1. What's it all about?
Dialogues through literature is a Reading Initiative which uses books and reading to make connections and develop contacts between existing reading groups and communities affected by the conflict in Northern Ireland.

The project, funded by the International Fund for Ireland, runs from Jan 2012 to August 2013 and Reading Groups in Counties Cavan, Leitrim, Fermanagh and Tyrone are participating, in conjunction with Public Library Services.

  1. 19 Reading Groups from Leitrim, Cavan, Fermanagh and Tyrone have commenced reading books form this shared reading list, and now make up a cross border DTL reading network.

    The groups will be planning to come together in smaller cross border clusters in April/May.

    Ideas are developing and the wheels restarting to turn for the August Symposium with contacts being made with writers.

    Further Information for groups and on the project , especially for readers in Leitrim, Fermanagh and Tyrone can be got by contacting your library and or Ruth Moore, the project Coordinator, at dialoguesthroughliterature@gmail.com
