    0:46 Born in Galway in 1882, Patrick Joseph Conroy was orphaned before his teens and went to live with his merchant uncle in Ros Muc, an intensely Irish-speaking area of Connemara. He took a Civil Service post in London in 1900 and there joined the Gaelic League, which sought to revive Irish as a spoken and literary language. When the League was founded, in 1893, less than one per cent of the Irish population spoke only Irish and there were only five Irish-language books in print.
    Encouraged by his fellow Gaelic Leaguers, he began writing short stories under the name Pádraic Ó Conaire. Greatly influenced by European literature, he wrote about the realities of Irish life in simple, sparse prose, which made his work accessible to native speakers and language learners alike. His best writing dealt with the marginalised in society, tackling issues such as poverty, emigration, prostitution, loveless marriages and mental illness. He won multiple literary awards and his books were eagerly read.

    Best town in the west maybe on the planet.
    Try Mick Taylors bar on Lr Dominic St- one of the oldest and original.
    Get to Blackrock for a swim.
