Скачать или смотреть Colm Tóibín: From Brooklyn to Long Island

Acclaimed Irish author Colm Tóibín joins host Jason Steger for an expansive conversation about his extraordinary literary career and his latest novel, Long Island – the long-awaited sequel to the beloved Brooklyn.

Originally presented on Wednesday 21 May 2025 at The Capitol by The Wheeler Centre, in partnership with Melbourne Writers Festival and RMIT University.

First published in 2009, Brooklyn followed Eilis Lacey as she left Ireland for a new life in New York. In Long Island, Tóibín returns to Eilis decades later – now married with children, seemingly settled into a quiet American life. But when a knock at the door disrupts the calm, Eilis is once again faced with the tides of exile, longing, and the enduring pull of the past.
