Handel’s Messiah
After a sea-sickening voyage, George Frederic Handel arrived into the harbour of Dublin on 18 November 1741, possibly landing on the pier where the Clarence Hotel is today (Wellington Quay). He quickly sorted himself into his lodgings on Abbey Street (today’s Upper Abbey Street near Liffey Street – alas his house has since been demolished).

One city one book
Dublin : One City One Book is a brilliant initiative, started 11 years ago by Dublin City Libraries. The idea is to unite people every April to read one book associated with the city of Dublin. Previous books that book clubs have joined together to read include novels by Dublin authors including Lia Mills, Roddy Doyle, James Joyce, Bram Stoker, Oscar Wilde and Flann O’Brien. This year’s book is Echoland by Joe Joyce – a gripping thriller set in Dublin during World War Two.
