Fascinating! My family also exiled themselves from Ireland, then Scotland... I have lived in years of exile from London and I am thinking of exiling myself back to Ireland. I had no idea Joyce was teaching English whilst he wrote in Trieste. I feel a bit miserable as I just left Spain because I hated teaching English! Keep up the good work. I was thinking about signing up for your mythology and writing course. Can you send me more details about that?

Hi REbecca, exile is a strange thing and you can be exiled in your own country... I'd feel miserable too if I'd just left Spain! I think so anyway. Yes do send me an email to letters@siofraodonovan.com and I will tell you all the details about the Heroine's Journey https://siofraodonovan.com/workshop/the-heroines-winter-writing-workshops/
