1 Contemporary Loss : The Process of Personal Sfumato Frank Crennan , 2020 single work essay
— Appears in: Griffith Review , April no. 68 2020; (p. 149-158) 'One of the most popular Irish broadcasters and writers of modern times was Nuala O'Faolain. Abruptly, in the middle of an engaged and full life, she was diagnosed with lung cancer. Later, when dying, Nuala was interviewed on Raidio Teilifis Eireann, the equivalent of our ABC. Perhaps because of her fame and the popularity of this particular show, the broadcast became a national sensation. It was as if the whole of Ireland listened to this most intense end-of-life conversation, delivered not privately, at a bedside, but into the national ear. There was lightness and laughter, but there was also despair, openness and tearful honesty.' (Introduction)
