Resumen

When I started doing this book-review editing job in 2020, the serious health risks of the COVID-19 pandemic were understood, and care was being taken to curb its spread. Ironic might not be the precise word for it, but it was easier to follow international events in Irish Studies when protections against infection were still in place, and events were almost exclusively held virtually. Now that the world has decided that we are no longer in danger, even though the virus refuses to cooperate with this version of reality, nearly everything from plays to conferences to concerts was back to in-person attendance by the end of 2022. Some of the consequences of this change of policy could not be hidden. Folk-rock music group Clannad had to cancel their farewell tour of Ireland in March, due to the virus. In June, a much-anticipated appearance in Cork of The Chemical Brothers was cancelled (the English duo withdrew from the Glastonbury Festival as well).
