The Cinema Arts Centre is honored to present an evening with the world renowned Irish novelist Colm Tóibín, along with his newest book, The News from Dublin: Stories, and a special screening of Brooklyn. The acclaimed film, based on Colm Tóibín’s eponymous, New York Times bestselling novel, stars the incandescent Saoirse Ronan in her second Academy Award nominated performance, this time for Best Actress, while the film itself garnered the coveted nomination for Best Motion Picture.
 
In The News from Dublin: Stories, Tóibín - lauded as “his generation’s most gifted writer of love’s complicated, contradictory power” (Los Angeles Times) and “simply one of the world’s best living literary writers” (Boston Globe) - demonstrates his ability to summon an extraordinary intensity of emotion in each of these eleven achingly beautiful short stories. His mastery of this difficult genre has led critics to liken them to “miniature novels, so assuredly paced and plangent in tone that it is no exaggeration to compare them to Joyce’s classic Dubliners” (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution).
 
Brooklyn (2015):
Directed exquisitely by John Crowley, Brooklyn marked major critical turning point in Saoirse Ronan’s career. The film solidified her reputation as one today’s most acclaimed actresses, celebrated for her immense versatility and depth, leading her to be praised by directors and co-stars as a “genius” who elevates the abilities of actors around her. The film tells the quietly profound story of Eilis Lacey, a young Irish woman, lured by the promise of America, who leaves the comfort of her mother’s home for the shores of New York City. The initial shackles of homesickness quickly diminish as a fresh romance sweeps Eilis into the intoxicating charm of love. But soon, her new vivacity is disrupted by her past as she is called back to Ireland, where she must choose between two countries and the lives that exist within. (USA, 2015, 157 mins | Dir. John Crowley)
 
Colm Tóibín. Universally acclaimed for his eleven novels, the short stories of Colm Tóibín - pronounced Cul-lum toe-BEAN for those unfamiliar with Irish – have been praised by The New York Times as “brilliant and transfixing,” “intense and gorgeous (Minneapolist Star-Tribune), and as “miniature novels, so assuredly paced and plangent in tone that it is no exaggeration to compare them to Joyce’s classic Dubliners.” (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution). Colm Tóibín’s novels include Long Island, an Oprah’s Book Club Pick; The Master, winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize; The Magician, winner of the Rathbones Folio Prize; Brooklyn, winner of the Costa Book Award; and Nora Webster, winner of the Hawthornden Prize. He is also the Irene and Sidney B. Silverman Professor of the Humanities at Columbia University and was named the 2022–2024 Laureate for Irish Fiction by the Arts Council of Ireland.
