The Gravity of the Understated
Presented by Victor Judge
9:45am-10:45am
December 4 (CKS Library), Dec. 11 (West Wing) and Dec. 18 (West Wing)In the novella Small Things Like These by contemporary Irish literary artist Claire Keegan, the national scandal of the Magdalene laundries is narrated in understated prose so stark and quiet that we as readers are rendered breathless. During the Advent Season of 1985 in the town of New Ross, the protagonist, Bill Furlong, makes a discovery while delivering coal to the Good Shepherd Convent. The revelations that ensue become the catalyst by which Bill confronts his past and the silences of a town controlled by the Church. Awarded the 2022 Orwell Prize for Political Fiction, Small Things Like These is a moral study in resistance to complicity. The lecturer for the series is Victor Judge, the assistant dean for academic affairs and lecturer in literature and religion at Vanderbilt University Divinity School.
Parnassus Books currently has copies of this book for $20.Audio Recording from Week 1
